Research Experience
- Studies continuous interactive choices and curiosity-driven choices in naturalistic contexts; examines how the brain represents word meanings and combines them to convey shades of meaning; develops and improves treatments for psychiatric and neurological diseases using behavioral and electrophysiological methods.
Background
- Research interests include how the brain represents value, implements choice, and regulates choices using executive control and self-control; language neuroscience, particularly in naturalistic contexts such as conversations and relating language use to depression and autism; neuromodulation and mental illness, especially developing and improving treatments for psychiatric and neurological diseases using behavioral and electrophysiological methods.
Miscellany
- Admits graduate students through BCM's Neuroscience Graduate Program, the Quantitative and Computational Biology Program, and through the ECE program at Rice University.
