I will be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Purdue University effective August 2013.

Research Overview

The goal of my research is to understand the role of memory in cognitive control by studying how knowledge and experience can be retrieved from memory to control thought and action. I integrate behavioral experimentation with computational modeling to explore the relationship between memory and cognitive control in the context of topics ranging from task switching to associative recognition. For additional information, please see my Curriculum Vitae (updated September 18, 2012) and feel free to peruse the publications below.
