Dobromir Rahnev is an Associate Professor and Blanchard Early Career Professor in the School of Psychology at Georgia Institute of Technology, part of the College of Sciences. He holds a B.A. from Harvard University (2007) and a Ph.D. from Columbia University (2012). His research focuses on perceptual decision making, metacognition, and neural mechanisms underlying subjective perception, using fMRI, TMS, and computational modeling. He has received prestigious awards including the APA Distinguished Scientific Award (2021) and NSF CAREER Award (2019).
His work investigates how the brain integrates sensory information and builds computational models to explain cognitive processes. Recent studies explore metacognition's relationship with sensory noise and neural network dynamics. Notable contributions include the Confidence Database and studies on TMS-fMRI integration. He leads the Computations of Subjective Perception Lab, emphasizing open science practices, sharing data, and code.
- Key Research Areas: Metacognition, fMRI/TMS methods, neural network models, perceptual decision-making biases.
- Recent Trends: Focus on computational models, Bayesian inference, and causal brain mechanisms via TMS.
