Dr. Josh Neudorf is an Assistant Professor in Psychology at Athabasca University. He completed his PhD with NSERC CGS-D funding under the supervision of Dr. Ron Borowsky at the University of Saskatchewan, and completed his Postdoctoral Fellowship with funding from the NSERC PDF and the Canadian Neuroanalytics Scholars Program under the supervision of Dr. Randy McIntosh at the Institute for Neuroscience & Neurotechnology at Simon Fraser University.

I enjoy reading and playing board games outside of work. My favourite sport is soccer, and I enjoy exploring nature with my wife, two sons, and dog.

Dr. Neudorf’s research uses neuroimaging methods including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate how the structural and functional brain networks are related to one another, and how these networks support cognitive processes involved in reading, semantic memory, and attention across the lifespan. This research combines methods from Psychology, Neuroscience, Mathematics, and Computer Science. More specifically, this research relies on cognitive neuroscience, computational neuroscience, complex systems theory, graph theory, deep learning, computational simulations, etc.
