CODELAB

To develop a new generation of brain science (and train scientists) focused on explaining complex real-world behavioural patterns.

CODELAB (Cognition in the digital environment laboratory) aims to discover the neural and behavioral processes underlying real-world behavior. We focus on day-to-day smartphone interactions in conjunction with a range of data: from neural data stemming from brain implants to laboratory tasks. Our pursuit to unravel real-world behavior leverages the rapidly growing fields of data science and complexity science. The focus on the real world has a growing imprint – from capturing how we age to discovering fundamental patterns like multi-day behavioral rhythms. We also play a foundational role in launching spin-offs that focus on solving real-world problems using the science and technology developed in our laboratory. Not just that, but we actively partner with clinics to leverage our new-found fundamental understanding of the human brain and behavior fordeveloping digital health systems of the future.

We want our research to be inclusive – may you be a high school student seeking your first research experience or have a doctorate degree seeking to extend your horizon. Our team uniquely gathers from a senior research-focused mentor (Arko Ghosh) as well as a senior teaching-focused mentor (Guido Band).
