size="2">The prefrontal areas of the mammalian brain are involved in‘higher
order brain functions’ such as cognition and goal-directed behaviours. Whilst
the prefrontal cortex is known to be selectively affected by devastating neurological
and psychological disorders (including Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia and
depression), the neuroanatomical correlates are poorly defined. My main research interest
concerns the structural and functional connectivity of the prefrontal cortex<span
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">and related limbic regions</span></font><span style="FONT-SIZE:
10pt">in a variety of mammalian species, including man.</span></div><div><span style="FONT-SIZE:
10pt">The ambitious research investigates the interconnectivity of neural networks
in specific areas of the prefrontal cortex at a number of correlated levels of analysis
ranging from neurochemically identified synaptic connections to functionally characterized
neural circuits– not only as a result of normal development but alsoin specific
behavioural paradigms.</span></div><div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">The overall
remit of the research is to identify key neural circuits in the prefrontal cortex
that are specifically compromised in human brain disorders with the aim of identifying
possible pharmacotherapeutic interventions.</span></div><div><span style="FONT-SIZE:
