"Without actions, our thoughts remain silent"

A fundamental feature of our behaviour is the ability to flexibly and efficiently prepare and specify our actions in response to changes in the world. Our current research a focuses on how the value of actions, our temporal expectations, or the emotional valence of events are ultimately transformed into actions.

Our labs are located at Queen Square 33, 4th floor. Our imaging studies are conducted at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging (FIL), which is just across the Square.
