Biography
Dr. Jahn is a neuroimaging consultant at the University of Michigan, teaching neuroimaging analysis, functional and structural connectivity, machine learning, and other topics related to cognitive neuroscience. He has hosted neuroimaging workshops at several research institutions across the United States, including the University of Washington, Michigan State University, Ohio State University, Harvard University, and others. His research focuses on the role of prediction within the medial prefrontal cortex, and how this applies to domains such as pain, cognitive control, and linguistic processing.
Originally from the Midwest, he received his B.A. from Carleton College and completed his Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience at Indiana University. After completing his postdoctoral fellowship at Haskins Laboratories in New Haven, Connecticut, he began his current job at the University of Michigan. His latest project is Andy’s Brain Book (https://andysbrainbook.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), a systematic guide for teaching new graduate students and research assistants how to analyze fMRI data.
