Ana Navarro Cebrian is a Lecturer and NEUR200 Course Director at the University of Maryland. Her academic journey includes a PhD in Cognitive Psychology from the University of Granada, Spain, and a B.S. from the Complutense University of Madrid. She conducted doctoral research at the University of California, Davis, and held postdoctoral and visiting scholar positions at UCSF, UC Berkeley, and Johns Hopkins University.
Her research focuses on cognitive control mechanisms, particularly error monitoring and its influence on decision-making. She investigates neural correlates of cognitive impairments in schizophrenia, anxiety, and other psychological disorders using EEG and fMRI techniques. Prior roles include teaching neuroscience courses at Loyola University Maryland and research at Johns Hopkins.
Her work bridges basic neuroscience and clinical applications, emphasizing brain networks like the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and intuitive physics. Recent studies explore dopaminergic pathways in decision-making and the dissociation of neural responses to errors. Though no formal awards are listed, her contributions span cognitive neuroscience, auditory imagery, and intertemporal choice dynamics.
Advising and grants are not explicitly detailed, but her teaching and research roles reflect strong academic engagement. No specific lab affiliations are mentioned, though her work aligns with interdisciplinary neuroscience initiatives.
