Project description

Taskswitching is commonly used to study cognitive control. To examine the functional role of different components of the cognitive control network, we will combine adaptation and decoding. With these techniques, we will study how taskset representations evolve with successive repetitions and examine whether information on the irrelevant taskset is present at switch trials, suggesting a taskset carryover effect across trials.
