Dr. Benjamin Scott is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Boston University. His research focuses on developing and applying new technologies to study the neural basis of cognition and complex learned behavior. His approach combines biomedical engineering with neuroethology, specifically in the development of novel optical imaging and genetic methods to observe and perturb neuronal activity in the native habitat of intact brains of living organisms. Current work in his lab emphasizes high-throughput behavioral training and advanced imaging techniques to identify and characterize the neural circuits involved in evidence-based decision-making. Scott's expertise lies in elucidating the basic principles of brain function through a comprehensive understanding of brain circuits that underlie natural behaviors, positioning his lab at the forefront of cognitive neuroscience.
Department of Law offers JD, LLM, and Master's in Study of Tax Law.
