About

Dominic Marjoram is a cognitive neuroscientist whose research bridges social cognition, neuroimaging, and mental health. His work centers on understanding how the brain processes social information—particularly mentalising, or the ability to infer others' mental states—and how these processes differ in conditions like schizophrenia. His most-cited study, "Online mentalising investigated with functional MRI" (2009, 88 citations), employed real-time fMRI to map neural networks engaged during dynamic social interactions, revealing key roles for the medial prefrontal cortex and temporoparietal junction. This work provided foundational insights into the neural architecture of everyday social reasoning. Marjoram’s contributions have advanced the field by integrating naturalistic paradigms with neuroimaging, moving beyond static stimuli to capture the fluid, online nature of social cognition. His findings have implications for understanding social deficits in psychiatric disorders and for developing targeted interventions. With a citation impact that underscores the relevance of his research, Marjoram continues to shape how we study the brain in social contexts, making his work essential reading for students and researchers exploring the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and mental health.
