Research interests I am interested in the
neural mechanisms of episodic retrieval - that is, how humans recollect
details of past experiences. Prior functional neuroimaging research has
implicated a number of distinct brain regions in successful
recollection (including the left posterior parietal cortex and left
superior prefrontal cortex), but the functional roles of these regions
have yet to be determined. My research aims to clarify the nature of
the cognitive operations subserved by these areas of the brain in the
context of memory retrieval. I currently utilize both functional
magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) to
investigate questions in episodic memory retrieval.
