Devin Terhune
Devin’s research on time perception aims to understand the factors underlying transient fluctuations in timing, the extent to which timing is supported by different subsystems, and distortions in timing in altered states of consciousness and clinical populations. His research on suggestion seeks to characterize the neurocognitive profile of highly suggestible individuals and understand the mechanisms underlying suggestion in hypnosis and placebo. He also has broader interests in awareness, metacognition, and functional neurological and dissociative disorders. Devin’s research uses a variety of techniques including MRI, EEG, non-invasive brain stimulation, eye-tracking, and a diverse array of statistical approaches.

Aaron Hinde
My passion for athleticism and my ability to equip people with the formula to preform at maximum capacity has played a major role throughout my career. My name is Aaron Hinde and I am the Co-Founder and President of LIFEAID Beverage Company, where we re-imagine what you drink. LIFEAID is a leading manufacturer of premium, healthy, and convenient nutritional products designed to boost performance and speed recovery for people pursuing active and healthy lifestyles. Basically, we make vitamins you'll actually enjoy drinking!
After earning a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College, I served as Clinic Director at Hinde Chiropractic Sports Injury and Pain Center for over ten years. As one of the top practices in Santa Cruz County, I helped over 5,000 individuals, including professional athletes, erase their pain and return to function as quickly as possible.
Being immersed in the health field, I noticed a genuine need in the marketplace for clean and effective sports drinks without the sugar and artificial flavoring. In 2011, I co-founded LIFEAID to provide individuals with specially formulated, low-sugar, high-value natural supplement beverages. Each of our nine beverage options, FITAID, FOCUSAID, LIFEAID, IMMUNITYAID, GOLFERAID, RX, FIT ZERO, RX ZERO and PARTYAID, are made with custom ingredients to provide customers with unique benefits ranging from enhancing athletic execution, to delivering mental acuity and improved concentration
Vince Clark
Dr. Clark has worked with MRN as Director of Neuroscience, then as Scientific Director recruiting scientists and helping MRN to increase its grant portfolio by expanding into new areas of research such as addiction, accelerated learning, and multimodal imaging. In association with the Department of Psychology at UNM, where he is Founding Director of the new Clinical Neuroscience Center, he and his associates investigate the relationship between mind and brain. He employs structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), event-related potentials (ERPs) and methods of transcranial brain stimulation, including transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), as well as other methods to examine human brain structure and function. Using these tools, he is investigating the basic organizational principles of perception, learning, memory, attention and language in healthy individuals. He also uses these methods to examine the neural basis of psychiatric disorders such as drug and gambling addiction, psychopathy and schizophrenia. He is developing new methods of data analysis for combining data from different imaging techniques to gain fundamentally new information on human brain structure and function, and is using this and other methods to expand the boundaries of brain imaging techniques. His recent area of research examines how tDCS can be used to increase learning and performance in healthy subjects, and the mechanisms by which tDCS produces changes in brain function and behavior. Brain stimulation may lead to a variety of innovations in classroom education and professional training, along with new treatments for psychiatric and neurological disorders.
