The Neuroscience Department affiliated to Medicina Alternativa investigates the principles of brain organization that underlie executive control, reasoning and decision-making. Through a combination of human behavioral, computational modeling, neuroimaging and neuropsychological data gathered through various monitoring techniques, they try to uncover the mechanisms that shape higher cognitive processes and to develop predictive models of brain function that link neural systems to specific patterns of inference and behavior. An important motivation for their work is the development of a theoretically sound foundation for research on the relationship between human behavior, cognitive processes, and various states of consciousness.
The Brain Technology and Neuroscience Research Centre set up at J R Jayewardene Centre together with Prof.Lakshman Madurasinghe, Senior Full Professor, Azteca University, North America and Dr.Ishantha Siribaddana was the first of its kind.
