mindlab annual report 2011 UNIK - MINDLab Annual Research Progress Report 2011 MINDLAB www.mindlab.au.dk

MINDLab is a cross-cutting and cognition research framework at Aarhus University,­ funded by the Danish Ministry of , Technology and Innovation as part of the Danish ­governments UNIK initiative, aiming to promote world-class research at Danish Universities.

MINDLab is based on fruitful collaborations among leading research groups across Faculties and ­Institutes at Aarhus University, centered at the Center of Functionally (CFIN) and the research focus area Cognition, Communication and Culture (CCC). The project expands and strengthens this collaboration, addressing central scientific problems within culture, music,­language and memory. Combining this knowledge with research on novel technologies to examine the living brain, and on the most devastating neurological and psychiatric disorders, we hope to create new means to preserve and recover function and quality-of-life in relation to diseases accounting for 35% of the disease burden in Denmark. MINDLab will also develop new forms of teaching and sharing of knowledge, exploiting crucial synergies across traditional disciplines. MINDLAB

MINDLab projects and their performance

On the following pages we present an overview of MINDLab projects and their progress over the past year. The projects span from groundbreaking experimental approaches to study human interactions and to new physiological principles and imaging methods which we expect will help us understand the origins of devastating disorders of the brain. MINDLab researchers have been productive, publishing in leading journals within our fields and submitting patent applications which will enable our research to be used in novel technologies by industry.

The diagram on Page 5 shows an overview of the organization of MINDLab. Collaborations and projects increasingly emerge between the various vertical 'streams', so the diagram does not truly reflect the extent of crossdisciplinary interaction and integration among Faculties, institutes and departments, but serves to guide you through the overview of MINDLab projects and their progress on the following pages.

We also provide an overview of the backbone of MINDLab, namely our experimental infrastructure and the MINDLab administration, housed with the Center of Functionally Integrative Neuroscience (CFIN) in the Danish Neuroscience Center (DNC) building at Aarhus University Hospital. Both serve as important focal points for MINDLab collaboration, in terms of performing cutting-edge experiments, and in terms of the seamless management of a group of scientists who work, collaborate and attract funding across dozens of University departments.

On behalf of the MINDLab leadership, I wish to thank the Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation, Aarhus University and the Central Denmark Region for their support to establish MINDLab and our infrastructure. We are grateful for the support we have received from numerous private and public grants to expand our research, for the hard work of our researchers, and for the fruitful collaborations we enjoy with colleagues in Aarhus, throughout Denmark, and abroad. 4 MINDLAB

However, voluntary memories have rarely been studied in a naturalistic setting, and we know little about them in real-life situations. We are currently conducting the first series of studies to compare naturalistic involuntary and voluntary memories. Preliminary results suggest that the two types of memories have much in 14 MINDLAB

These areas include effect of cognitive and emotional factors on basic as well as human experimental and clinical pain processing both in human volunteers and neuroscience activities. In this program we are in patients. In two ongoing research projects focusing on plasticity i.e. the ability to change the pain group is studying relationship between activity depending on external or internal muscle pain and positive/negative emotions and stimuli. The plasticity can be both adaptive and genotyping of the serotonin-transporter-gene. This maladaptive as seen in different neurological and project will also involve characterization of cortical psychiatric disorders such as stroke, dementia, processes in pain perception.

This assumes that people form models of we can examine situations where couplings are other’s mental states when they try to understand mediated by symbols and artifacts, and/or staged them. It has been heavily debated whether these within particular institutional, social and cultural assumptions relied on the use of a “theory of mind” frameworks. Finally, our competences in fieldwork- as an explicit metarepresentation of the other, (“I based approaches and in ecological psychology think that he thinks that…”) or on a simulation of the allow us to relate lab-based research to real-life other’s perspective (“what would it be like to be scenarios. in her shoes…”). This discussion between “theory- theory” and “simulation-theory” has dominated We believe that this “coupling approach” may the field of social cognition, but each of these radically change our understanding of human approaches has run into serious problems when interaction. This will have implications for how we trying to understand real social interaction. think of and design emerging patterns of practice e.g. in education and for how we may diagnose Recently, a very different approach to social and ultimately alleviate clinical syndromes, cognition has emerged. This focuses on how involving severe failures of interaction, such as people, through interaction, couple to each autism, schizophrenia, depression, borderline other. In this approach, understanding others personality disorder, and right-hemisphere brain does not only rely on explicit representation, but lesions. it is supported by, if not constituted by, couplings at different levels, which occur as a result of The attempt to understand human coupling in all interaction.
