During his tenure Dr. Milberg has published numerous empirical and theoretical scientific articles and chapters dealing with brain organization and information processing in aging related diseases. Since 2009 he has Co-Directed the TRACTS program with his longtime collaborator and lab co-leader Dr. McGlinchey.
