معرفی
Michael Petrides is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at McGill University. His research focuses on neuropsychology and cognitive neuroscience, investigating the functions of the frontal, temporal, and parietal cortices through studies involving patients with brain lesions, animal models, and neuroimaging techniques like PET and fMRI. His work bridges human and non-human primate studies to understand cognitive mechanisms.
Research Interests:
- Cognitive Neuroscience: Examines neural underpinnings of higher cognitive functions.
- Behavioral Neuroscience: Analyzes brain-behavior relationships via lesion studies and animal models.
- Neuroimaging: Utilizes PET and fMRI to map brain regions involved in memory, language, and decision-making.
Publications Trends: His work emphasizes cross-species comparisons (human-macaque), functional connectivity analysis, and clinical applications of neuroimaging in neurosurgical planning.
Advising & Grants: No student advisees listed. Grants and funding details not explicitly mentioned in provided materials.
Labs/Teams: Affiliated with McGill's Psychology Department research groups studying cognitive neuroscience and brain architecture.
