Professor Chudasama’s research integrates methods of behaviour, neuroanatomy and psychopharmacology to understand the neurobiological mechanisms underlying processes of learning, memory and attention. Her main work focuses on the executive functions of the frontal lobe and its interaction with the medial temporal lobe. She is particularly interested in how neurochemical pathology of the fronto-temporal circuitry can affect normal cognitive and emotional behaviour. This work is guided by fundamental scientific questions but also is designed to have potential application to neuropsychiatric disorders, specifically in the area of developing therapeutic treatments for such disorders as schizophrenia, depression, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
