Biography
Kenneth T. Kishida is a neuroscientist internationally recognized for developing a first-of-its-kind method to measure brain chemicals like dopamine and serotonin in real time in awake, conscious humans. His lab uses direct intracranial recordings with sub-second temporal resolution to investigate how neuromodulators affect choice behavior and subjective experience.
