About

Bernard Balleine is a Scientia Professor at UNSW Sydney, Australia. His research focuses on the cognitive control of instrumental action, the role of striatal dopamine in goal-directed behavior, and the effects of thalamostriatal degeneration. His recent publications explore various aspects of action control, stimulus control of habits, and the implications of neural circuitry in behavioral outcomes.
