CORG explores how the brain and AI shape learning, media, and the future of work through interdisciplinary research at Dalhousie University.
At CORG we are developing new approaches to educational technology, social media, and workplaces. We take an interdisciplinary perspective using neuroimaging and artificial intelligence techniques, applied to management contexts. CORG is led by Dr. Colin Conrad and is based out of the Faculty of Management at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada.
What happens in your mind when you watch long lecture videos or use learning systems? We are investigating the best ways to learn online by observing the brain.
It's easy to create social media disinformation using AI. What are the brain factors that make us susceptible to disinformation, and how can people stay attentive?
Remote work is hard, but some organizations are really good at it. We are finding ways to transfer those skills to a broader audience and to more people.
The publications below include papers published in either journals or conference proceedings which involved more than one team member using lab resources. In addition to our core team, we work closely with other lab groups, including the Dalhousie NeuroCognitive Imaging Lab (NCIL) and Dalhousie Natural Language Processing Group (DNLP).
