About

The main objective of the PNL is the development of research in the area of human clinical neurosciences. We take advantage of several methodological approaches as autonomic measures (polygraph and biofeedback), EEG/ERP; TMS/tDCS, and neuroimaging and neurobiochemistry  in pursuing the neural and physiological correlates of human behaviour.
