Mark Johnson

Mark Johnson is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences and the Department of Psychology. His research focuses on typical, at-risk, and atypical functional brain development in human infants and toddlers. He employs a range of techniques including brain imaging, cognitive, behavioural, genetic, and computational modelling approaches. His work addresses mental health and developmental cognitive neuroscience, with an emphasis on understanding human pre and postnatal brain development. Johnson's research areas include cognitive neuroscience and developmental cognitive neuroscience.

Mark H Johnson is a researcher at the University of Cambridge, focusing on psychology and neuroscience. His work explores developmental cognitive neuroscience, functional brain development, and the mechanisms underlying face recognition in infants. He investigates how cognitive and neural systems develop from birth, including topics such as eye contact detection, newborn preferences for face-like stimuli, and the role of subcortical processing in face recognition. His research also addresses the development of visual attention and the neural basis of cognitive functions in early infancy. Johnson's studies contribute to understanding the interplay between biology and cognitive development, with implications for conditions such as autism.
