Welcome to the website of the Systems Neuroscience of Action and Perception (SNAP) Lab, led by Prof. Bianca van Kemenade. We investigate questions regarding perception and action. For example, how do we distinguish self-generated from externally generated stimuli? How do our actions influence our perception and neural processing? And how might problems with these mechanisms be involved in schizophrenia? We use fMRI, TMS, and behavioural methods to answer such questions.
