Research Interests
Problems with cognition are central to understanding psychiatric and neurological conditions across the lifespan. Therefore, my primary research interests are directed towards understanding human cognition and cognitive dysfunction, as well as how a person’s cognition and behavior are related to the brain and the rest of the nervous system.
