What we do

We study the human brain and behavior to understand memory and cognition. We are curious about what constitutes the mind, how it is implemented in the brain, and how it relates to one's health. Our research is focused on memory, as it captures both the content (what we remember) and process (how we remember) of the mind, providing a solid foundation for us to understand more complex mental phenomena, such as affect, decision-making, social interaction, and mental health. As an outgrowth of this research and because discussions of this research raised interesting data-analytic questions, we also work to develop and promote methods to interpret large-scale behavioral and neural data. See our recent progress.
