Research interests:
In the domain of cognitive neuroscience, I am currently using cognitive models, along with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI, hence the pictures in the left hand column), to better understand relationships between brain and language. More specifically, I am interested in how semantic knowledge (such as the meaning of words) is organized in and retrieved by the brain.
My current postdoctoral advisor is Jeffrey R. Binder, M.D. My graduate work at the University of Iowa, Neuroscience Program, was performed in the Laboratory of Computational Neuroimaging, under the direction of Thomas J. Grabowski, Jr., M.D. (currently the director of the Integrated Brain Imaging Center at the University of Washington). The title of my dissertation was Distinguishing the Neural Bases of Lexical Access.
