معرفی
Dan Fehring is a Research Fellow in the Department of Psychology at Monash University, specializing in cognitive neuroscience, neuromodulation, and executive control mechanisms. He focuses on understanding how prefrontal cortex functions modulate decision-making, addiction, and sex differences in brain processes. His work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to mental health and well-being.
Research interests include neuromodulation techniques (e.g., TDCS), neuropharmacology (opioids, cannabis), and cognitive control mechanisms. He has published extensively on topics like prefrontal stimulation effects, dimensional bias in primates, and music’s role in conflict resolution. His articles span 2016–2025, with recent work exploring stimulation safety, morphine’s cognitive impacts, and biochemical markers of cannabis use.
