The “sparks” of light show the spikes of electrical activity that travel nerve cells, hauling bits of information between different parts of the brain. Believe it or not, what you see here is a tiny fraction of the total number of cells found in the brain. The empty spaces between neurons are but a mirage-—in reality, they are packed with other cells.

She also has appointments as Professor of Mathematics, Neuroscience and Psychiatry at UConn, Senior Scientist & Senior Advisor of Strategic Planning at Haskins Laboratories, Co-Director of Haskins L2 (Language & Literacy) Global Innovation Hub, Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry, Weill Institute for Neurosciences and Dyslexia Center at UCSF, and Adjunct Faculty of Neuropsychiatry at Keio Univ School of Medicine (SoM). She has previously held faculty positions at Stanford and UCSF prior to her current appointment. Hoeft is a neurophysiologist, as well as a systems and developmental cognitive neuroscientist with theoretical interests in the neurobiological mechanisms underlying individual differences in brain maturational processes, acquisition of skills such as literacy and how they interact. She is also interested in identifying how biology (gene) and environment influence neurodevelopment. In her research, her lab employs a variety of neuroimaging techniques (e.g. fMRI, T1 aMRI, DWI, MRS, NIRS, EEG/MEG, TMS/tDCS), analytical approaches (e.g. machine learning, graph theory), designs (e.g. intergenerational neuroimaging, imaging genetics, human natural cross-fostering design), and perturbation techniques (e.g. neuromodulation using TMS/tDCS, perturbation of English literacy acquisition through foreign language/literacy learning, and atypical populations such as dyslexia).
