Our group is led by Bolton Chau and is based in The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. We have a research focus on understanding brain mechanisms of human decision making and predicting cognitive performance using brain data. We employ a variety of neuroscience techniques, including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and artificial neural network.
