  • Abstract

    University of Science and Technology of China set up a Joint Laboratory for Brain Function and Medical Imaging in 1999. The main study interests are high level cognitive functions (e.g., working memory, selective attention, executive control and decision making), and related cognitive impairment and mental health (e.g., working memory in aging and neuroendocrinological disorders, e-game addiction) with cognitive behavioral and neuroimaging (ERP and fMRI) approaches. Many experiments have been completed and significant results have been obtained in these fields. The important topics in positive psychology such as neural correlates of emotion and well-being would be our further focus.
