Research Topics/Goals

  • Which sensorimotor processes are disturbed in psychosis?
  • How do they relate to and shape neural networks, especially the cerebellum and its connections?
  • How do they drive hallmark symptoms of psychosis and related psychopathology?
  • How do these systems become perturbed?
  • How can we intervene?
