Dr. Cohen-Zimerman is a cognitive neuroscientist with a clinical-neuropsychology background. Her research strives to map brain areas that underlie social and cognitive functions, and identify predictors of long term cognitive outcomes following brain injury.

To address these questions Dr. Cohen-Zimerman is studying several clinical populations including individuals with penetrating traumatic brain injury, stroke, and cancer, as well as healthy older and younger adults. She is using various tools and methodologies such as lesion-symptom mapping techniques and neuropsychological testing.

In her work, Dr. Cohen-Zimerman is linking recent advances in cognitive neuroscience with personality and social psychology, and her goal is to develop evidence-based interventions to maintain and improve cognitive functioning for patients with neurological and mental disorders.
