Alex Fornito Lab home
Welcome to the Neural Systems and Behaviour Lab
We undertake interdisciplinary research to understand how the brain functions as an integrated network, in both health and disease. Our goal is to understand how different parts of the brain communicate with each other, how brain function supports adaptive behaviour, and how disruptions of brain function influence risk for mental illness.
The Lab is led by Professor Alex Fornito
We are part of the School of Psychological Sciences and a member of the Brain Mapping and Modelling Research Program in the Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health.
