Dr. Roey Schurr

Dr.
Roey did his PhD in the lab as part of the Computational Brain Science program at ELSC. For his PhD thesis, Roey developed methods for improving the in vivo mapping of white-matter tracts. These methods are based on combining diffusion MRI tractography with complementary information from multi-modal quantitative MRI.

Roey continued to a postdoc at the Computational Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at Harvard University, working with Sam Gershman on the temporal dynamic of cognition using computational modeling. He later pursued a second postdoc at the Computational Design Principles lab at HUJI, working with Yuval Hart on the neural basis of creative search.
 
Roey currently runs his own lab at the Weizmann institute, focusing on combining computational models of cognition with advanced neuroimaging to understand individual differences in cognitive strategies.
