A leader in neuromodulation who is focused on finding noninvasive methods for remediating age-related decline in thinking and memory, Dr. Adam J. Woods joined The University of Texas at Dallas as dean of the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS) in 2024, where he was also named as the Aage and Margareta Møller Distinguished Professor. On the transition to UT Dallas and BBS, Dr. Woods has said, "As a cognitive neuroscientist with a major focus on health sciences, I couldn’t think of a better footprint for my interests.”
Dr. Woods has highlighted research, education and practice as the three pillars of BBS and described the school as uniquely positioned to have an impact across many domains, including devices, noninvasive intervention and clinical trials spanning many interdisciplinary fields.
