Steven Bressler - Biography http://www.ccs.fau.edu/~bressler/ Steven Bressler's home page at FAU Dr. Steven Bressler is a leading innovator in the field of cognitive neuroscience. With broad experience in neuroscience, cognition, and computation, his work transcends many of the disciplines that contribute to cognitive neuroscience. He has considerable cross-species experience, having published studies of rodents, non-human primates, and humans. Dr. Bressler received his graduate training in behavioral neurophysiology and neuroanatomy at UC Berkeley, and his postdoctoral training in cognitive science, experimental design, digital signal processing, and multivariate time series analysis at the EEG Systems Laboratory in San Francisco. He currently directs the Cognitive Neurodynamics Laboratory in the Center for Complex Systems & Brain Sciences at Florida Atlantic University. Dr. Bressler is a principal contributor to the rapidly growing field of large-scale neurocognitive networks. His studies have had an important impact on thinking in cognitive neuroscience, demonstrating the role of coordination dynamics in cortical information processing during cognitive function. His papers have been cited over 1600 times in leading research journals. His seminal 1993 Nature paper established a precedent for a flood of experimental reports that followed on long-range cortical interactions in cognition. His 1995 Brain Research Reviews paper was also highly influential on subsequent theoretical investigations into the neural basis of cognitive function. His 2003 Neuropsychopharmacology paper has been cited as providing a strong theoretical underpinning for an increasing number of experimental reports that point to discoordination of brain rhythms as a major factor in schizophrenia. |
