Patrick Haggard

Patrick Haggard is a Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London, leading the Action & Body Research Group. His research focuses on the cognitive neuroscience of voluntary action and the brain's representation of the body as a physical entity. He explores how subjective experiences of action intentions relate to neural processes and how sensory inputs like touch and pain influence self-representation.

Research interests include analyzing brain activity during manual actions, the neural basis of self-awareness through body representation, and the integration of sensory feedback with motor intentions. His work bridges perceptual experiments with neuroimaging to address fundamental questions in cognitive neuroscience.

No articles or awards are explicitly listed in the provided text, but his research themes suggest contributions to action neuroscience and body perception studies. No grants or student advising details are mentioned. He leads the Action & Body Research Group, focusing on experimental and neuroscientific approaches to understanding human action and self-awareness.
