Our Lab
ABOUT US
Memory, time and space in the brain and the mind
Our research group leverages advanced functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and neuropsychological evidence, to disclose the interplay between memory, time and space processing. We are a multidisciplinary team, including neuroscientists, neuropsychologists and a neuroradiologist. Memory time and space lab is led by Maddalena Boccia and based at Department of Psychology of Sapienza University of Rome.
In the laboratory team
Our goal is to disclose the neural mechanisms of autobiographical memory, and the interplay between memory time and space. Understanding the way in which our brain and the mind create memories of our own past may have important applications for widespread conditions characterized by episodic autobiographical memory deficits, such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, anoxia, encephalitis and Alzheimer's Disease.
