Dr Nazia Jassim

I’m a post-doctoral research associate at the Prediction and Learning Lab, Dept of Psychology, University of Cambridge, UK. For my research, I use a variety of cognitive neuroscience techniques, from behavioural experiments to ultra high-resolution 7T MRI and Spectroscopy, to investigate the neurocomputations of perception, learning, and decision-making in relation to mental health and neurodiversity. Previously, as part of the Parke-Davis Postdoctoral Exchange Fellowship, I visited the Carney Institute of Brain Sciences at Brown University, USA, where I trained in computational psychiatry methods. Prior to this, I completed my PhD at the Autism Research Centre (ARC), University of Cambridge, on the neurocognitive mechanisms of perceptual inference in autism.
