Brock Kirwan

Director, MindCORE Neuroimaging Facility
University of Pennsylvania

CV

I am interested in how the brain forms long-term memories and how we use those memory representations to guide future decision making. I use a number of different methods in my research. These include neuropsychological studies with memory-impaired patients, behavioral tests with healthy adults, and functional neuroimaging (fMRI).
