Jared Cooney Horvath is a cognitive neuroscientist, educator, and author whose work focuses on the science of learning, attention, memory, and technology in education. His research and commentary have appeared in outlets including The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and The Economist, and in peer-reviewed journals such as NeuroImage, Brain Stimulation, and Trends in Neuroscience and Education.[1][2][3][4][5][6] He has held research and teaching affiliations with Harvard University, the University of Melbourne, and St. Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne, and has published books on learning and communication for educators and the public.[7][8][9]
Early life and education
Horvath received an M.Ed. and Ph.D. in education and cognitive neuroscience. He has been affiliated with Harvard University, the University of Melbourne, and St. Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne through research, teaching, and collaborative neuroscience projects.[7][8]
Career
Horvath’s work centers on applying neuroscience and psychology to real-world learning contexts. At the University of Melbourne, he contributed to projects on attention, memory, and the impact of technology on learning.[10] He is Director of LME Global, where he develops science-of-learning programs for educators and students.[11]
Research and public scholarship
Horvath’s peer-reviewed work includes studies on neuromyths and teacher effectiveness,[12] as well as foundational reviews on non-invasive brain stimulation and cognitive performance.[4][5][6] His meta-analytic critique of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has become one of the most referenced works in the field and has been cited by major outlets examining the reliability of brain stimulation research.[1][3][2] He has also written for Harvard Business Review on the limitations of generative artificial intelligence tools in education.[13]
