The studies focus on skill (&#8220;how to&#8221; knowledge) acquisition processes in healthy individuals but also in individuals with developmental and acquired neurological disabilities. The main model system studied are motor skill consolidation but we also address learning and memory in relation to literacy skills and language use. I and my students are using neuro-imaging technologies combined with performance\/behavior analyses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Home Page URL:<\/b><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof. Avi Karni Email: avi.hbl@gmail.com Affiliation Faculty \/ Department: Faculty of Natural Sciences, Sagol Department of Neurobiology &amp; Faculty of Education, the Edmond J Safra Brain Research Center for the Study of Learning Disabilities; the Integrated Center for Brain and Behavior Academic Background: M.D. from the Sackler School of Medicine, Tel Aviv University.
