Dr Mark Hinder awarded a prestigious ARC Future Fellowship
Mark Hinder (UTAS School of Medicine – Division of Psychology) had been awarded an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship. The award was presented in a ceremony with ARC CEO Aidan Byrne and Senator Simon Birmingham in Brisbane just before Christmas (see photo: Dr Mark Hinder (L), Prof Aidan Byrne, CEO of ARC (centre), Professor Andrew Heathcote (R): credit Ray Cash Photography)
Mark is one of only 50 new fellowship recipients nationally, and the sole recipient from UTAS in the new cohort of Fellows. The four year fellowship begins early in 2016.
Mark will combine his expertise in brain stimulation techniques, especially transcranial magnetic stimulation, and motor control processes to collaborate with Professor Andrew Heathcote in a project that looks at the neural underpinnings of rapid decision-making processes in young and older adults. A particularly novel and exciting aspect of the project will be combining brain stimulation and computational modelling to determine causal relationships between brain function, decision-making abilities and specific parameters within computational models of decision-making. The project will involve collaboration with Dr James Coxon, a neuroscientist based at Monash.
