Dr. Apoorva Bhandari is a cognitive neuroscientist who studies executive function. His research program is focused on understanding the psychological, computational and neural principles that govern flexible cognition in humans, and in applying these principles outside the laboratory in real-world contexts. He is currently working to analyse the codes of human brains to encode information about the tasks we need to perform and figure out how the format of this code enables our cognition and behaviour to be nimble and flexible. He uses a combination of behavioural methods, functional MRI, computational modelling and machine learning.
