Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTor Wager is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder who leads the Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience Laboratory, combining rigorous experimental work on how cognition shapes affective experience with methodological innovation in fMRI analysis. Trained at the University of Michigan and formerly on faculty at Columbia, he has directed his lab since 2010 and built widely used, publicly available software toolboxes and courses that translate advanced neuroimaging methods into accessible resources. His research uniquely bridges affective learning, brain–body communication, and analytic tool development, and he disseminates this work through a book, a Coursera course, and an active YouTube channel. Based in Boulder, he blends deep academic scholarship with practical training initiatives that broaden the reach of neuroimaging techniques.
