Welcome to Hillel Aviezer's Affective Neuropsychology Lab!

From flirting smiles to angry scowls - Emotional expressions are part of our daily life.  Most of us don’t give emotional expressions much thought, we simply express and recognize them in an effortless and rapid manner. However, following neuropsychological and neuropsychiatric disorders, emotion perception can break down with devastating consequences. How exactly do we accomplish the complex feat of emotional communication?  In the Affective Neuropsychology Lab we approach this question in diverse lines of studies.
