Associate Director, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience
Director of Graduate Studies, Interdiscipinary Program In Cognitive Neuroscience
Duke University
Dr. Woldorff received a B.A. in Physics and Math from UC Berkeley and a Ph.D. in (Cognitive) Neuroscience from UC San Diego. His main research interests are in the cognitive neuroscience of attention. His research uses a combination of electrophysiological (ERP, MEG) and functional neuroimaging (fMRI) methods to study the time course, functional neuroanatomy, and mechanisms of attentional processes. This multi-methodological approach is directed along several main lines: (1) The influence of attention on sensory and perceptual processing; (2) The executive control of attention by higher levels of the brain; and (3) The processes underlying multisensory integration and how attention interacts with such processes.
