We plan to delineate the neural characteristicsof spontaneous attentional lapses, and target brain networks underlying poorexecutive control using our novel experimental setup in healthy individuals andadults with symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
The candidate will berequired to contribute to study preparation, participant recruitment, datacollection and analysis (behavioural measures from clinical/neuropsychologicaltests and cognitive tasks, structural and functional MRI, delivering brainstimulation with tDCS and rTMS) and preparation of manuscripts.
