Corby Dale

Corby Dale, PhD, is a Researcher at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), affiliated with the Graduate Division. His work focuses on neuroimaging, cognitive neuroscience, and understanding neural mechanisms underlying brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, and autism spectrum disorders. He has contributed to advancements in MEG/EEG source reconstruction through the development of the NUTMEG software tool. His research spans topics including auditory processing, sensorimotor adaptation, neuroplasticity, and cognitive training interventions for psychiatric disorders.

Education includes postdoctoral studies in the Graduate Division at UCSF. Key research areas include neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer’s), auditory dysfunction in schizophrenia, and genetic influences on neurodevelopmental disorders via the Simons VIP project. His publications highlight expertise in functional connectivity analysis, neural oscillations, and translational brain imaging techniques.

Notable contributions include studies on sensory prediction errors in speech production, interhemispheric auditory synchronization in hearing loss, and cortical plasticity in cognitive rehabilitation. His work bridges basic neuroscience with clinical applications, emphasizing computational methods and open-source tools for neuroimaging analysis.
