RESEARCH INTERESTS
Basic mechanisms of human learning and memory. These phenomena are typically studied within the context of category learning experiments. The emphasis is on elucidating the neural structures and pathways that mediate these processes, building computational models that mimic the flow of activation through these networks, and then testing the models on a wide variety of data, including functional neuroimaging data, neuropsychological patient data, and data from traditional cognitive behavioral experiments.
