Topic: "Promoting Cognitive and Neural System Recovery in Early Psychosis"

To demonstrate to attendees how we measure the behavior and neurophysiology of mice, macaques, and humans performing computationally equivalent tasks; and to show that we can identify the computational parameters that characterize state representation processes (and their disruption) through modeling of trial-by-trial behavior within and across two tasks - one focused on cognitive control and one focused on reward-based learning).

Objectives:

1.  Describe the clinical and cognitive heterogeneity of psychosis spectrum illnesses. 

2.  Understand what the term "state representation" means in computational neuroscience.

3.  Recognize the effect of target cognitive training in the early phases of psychotic illness.
