About

Investigative topics include top-down modulation, a neural process that allows us to enhance relevant information and suppress irrelevant information, as well as networks related to attention and memory and neural differences related to short-term and long-term memory processes. In addition, changes with aging are being explored with regard to these topics.

Techniques utilized include Electroencephalography (EEG), which measures the electrical activity from the scalp to reveal temporal dynamics, functional/structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (f/MRI), which measures blood oxygenation to look at regional activity and connectivity, as well as fMRI-guided Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), which perturbs a dime-sized region of the cortex allowing causal inference.

Recent work involves the use of a novel technique which combines EEG and fMRI, recorded simultaneously, in order to utilize the increased temporal resolution of EEG to inform fMRI analysis, which provides increased spatial resolution.
