About the Lab The Neuropsychology, Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience (NCCN) lab led by Dr. Bruce J. Diamond examines brain, behavior and underlying physiological correlates (EEG and autonomic) in order to better understand neurologic, neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders as well as to develop rehabilitation strategies and techniques. The NCCN Lab examines memory, executive function, information processing, depression, anxiety, language processing in the bilingual brain, psychopharmacology, mindfulness meditation and virtual reality in neurotypical and in diverse clinical populations across the developmental spectrum including brain injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, autism, chronic fatigue and forensic populations. Dr. Bruce J. Diamond: Clinical Interests and Research Areas Dr. Diamond is a Iicensed Psychologist (NJ) specializing in Neuropsychology. He has published and presented a diverse body of work including: manuscripts, chapters, guest editorship for a volume on telerehabilitation, encyclopedia entries, and proceedings, totaling 85 publications, 97 conference abstracts and 47 platform presentations at regional, national and international conferences. Importantly, students have been an integral part of his research both in terms of conference presentations, in which students have been co-presenters and authors on 45 conference abstracts and 45 students have been co-authors on twenty-five publications. Within this body of work are 14 chapters in books spanning: Complementary and Integrative Treatments, Acquired Brain Injury, Bilingualism and Optimization of Translation Expertise, Approaches in Managing and Treating Dementia, Cognitive Translation Studies, Processing speed, switching and executive control in the bilingual brain, Cognitive-Sensory Adaptive Learning Systems, Neural, Physiological and Behavioral Correlates of Language Translation and Interpretation, Ginkgo Biloba Extract: Psychiatric Indications, Mechanisms and Safety, Pharmacological treatments in Alzheimer’s Disease, Neurotoxic and Metabolic injuries, Cognitive Processes in Translation and Interpretation, and Alternative Medicine in the Treatment of Neurological Disorders and Emotion. Research manuscripts have encompassed an equally diverse range of areas including: depression/anxiety, memory, information processing, meditation, priming, unaware memory, alternative medicine, working memory, information technology, telerehabilitation, eyeblink conditioning, autism and rehabilitation, fMRI, stroke, brain injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Traumatic Brain Injury, Stroke, aging, amnesia, prosopagnosia, processing in the bilingual brain, psychopharmacology, transcranial magnetic brain stimulation and heart rate variability.
