John Medaglia, PhD

Associate Professor at Drexel University

Dr. Medaglia is an Associate Professor of Psychological & Brain Sciences at Drexel University and an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Neurology at the University of Pennsylvania, where he is a Co-Principal Investigator in the Laboratory for Cognition and Neural Stimulation, and core faculty at the Brain Science, Translation, Innovation, and Modulation Center (BrainSTIM). He is also an Affiliated Scientist at Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute.

In 2015, Dr. Medaglia received the NIH Director’s Early Independence Award to study brain stimulation treatments for cognitive control in health and stroke. In 2019, he was named a "Rising Star" by the Association for Psychological Science and a Fellow of the Psychonomic Society, and in 2022 was honored with the Provost’s Award for Outstanding Early-Career Scholarly Achievement. Dr. Medaglia’s work has been funded by the NIH Office of the Director, National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and donors.

His Cognitive Neuroengineering and Wellbeing (CogNeW) laboratory applies network analysis and personalized brain stimulation to understand and treat cognitive dysfunction.
