Simon Hanslmayr is a Professor in the School of Psychology & Neuroscience at the University of Glasgow. His research investigates neural oscillations' role in attention and memory processes, employing EEG, fMRI, and transcranial stimulation techniques. He focuses on healthy populations and clinical conditions like Schizophrenia and PTSD. His lab develops tools like the Brain Time Toolbox for electrophysiological data analysis.
- Education: Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience (not explicitly detailed in text)
Research interests include understanding how precise neural timing via oscillations underpins cognitive functions. Key areas: hippocampal memory coding, theta phase synchronization in associative memory, and causal effects of rhythmic stimulation on memory plasticity.
Recent articles highlight mechanisms linking theta oscillations to memory formation, thalamocortical interactions in perception, and hippocampal-neocortical coupling. His work bridges experimental and computational approaches to model memory dynamics.

Supervised students include Kiera Capstick, Eleonora Marcantoni, and others. Collaborates with researchers worldwide through lab affiliates and visiting scholars. Current work emphasizes scalable neurotechnologies for cognitive enhancement and memory rehabilitation.
Labs/Teams: Leads the Memory & Oscillations Lab at the University of Glasgow, collaborating with institutions like the University of Zurich and Maastricht University on neuroimaging and clinical studies.
