The Brain, Mind and Consciousness laboratory investigates high-level cognitive processes using brain imaging (fMRI), behavior and introspective reports. We are particulary interested in areas of overlap, as well as seperation, between psychological processes involved in social cognition, mechanical reasoning, attention and self-awareness.

Our work is informed by neuroscience, psychology and philosophy. The laboratory is situated in the new and unique transdisciplinary Department of Cognitive Science at Case Western Reserve University; and part of Case's Cognitive Neuroscience Initiative. We are involved in collaborations across the University and beyond, including the Department of Neurology in the Medical School, the Department of Organizational Behavior in the Weatherhead School of Management, and the departments of Communication Sciences and Philosophy in Arts and Sciences.
