Behavioral Neuroscience Explained
- Behavioral neuroscience studies the biological basis of behavior, linking brain structures to actions.
- It combines disciplines like psychology, neurobiology, and cognitive science to understand behavior.
Insight from Lie Detection Research

- She found lying involves cognitive processes, not unique brain regions, and is different from actual deception.
Applying Neuroscience to Interrogations
- Sujeeta worked with the FBI's high-value detainee interrogation group to bring science-based approaches to interrogations.
- They used proven behavioral science without coercion to improve interview methods.
