Brain and psychophysiological research

Brain and psychophysiological research focuses on development, learning, learning disabilities, ageing and mental disorders. The research teams work closely together.

In CIBR we study learning and cognition in all levels of brain activity ranging from single neurons to whole head recordings. Learning is studied from the level of perception to formation on life-long memories.

NeuroCognition Lab

Research groups in the research area

Active Mind Lab

In the Active Mind Lab, we study how the brain processes information; in particular, we study communication through speech and facial expressions. The name of our group reflects our aim to produce information that can help promote effective learning and t

The research project investigates the effects of extreme fatigue on an individual's physiology and performance in a military context

LearnDigi - Digitalization in and for learning and interaction

LearnDigi is a profiling area of JYU funded by Academy of Finland. We aim to examine ways in which technologies are used to support learning and knowledge construction, and the impacts of increasing digitalization on learning and interaction.

Learning, aging and dyslexia - LeADy

In this project we will focus on dyslexia, or reading disability, how it manifests in older individuals, how it is associated with aging-related cognitive decline and will study in detail these processing using brain research methods.
