Research Group: 4D
Biography
Duncan is the Gnodde Goldman Sachs Professor of Neuroinformatics at the Department of Psychiatry, a Programme Leader at the Medical Research Council’s Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, and a Fellow of Robinson College, all within the University of Cambridge. He heads the ‘4D Lab’ (https://www.astlelab.com/). They use a series of analytical tools to address crucial clinical and fundamental questions about childhood development.
