laboratory experience

badre lab | cognitive control and executive function

brown university | august 2019-present

studying how properties of cognitive control representations affect behavior; improving novel method for measuring the dimensionality of neural populations non-invasively with fmri; running neural simulations and human behavioral experiments to test novel hypotheses about cognitive control

bunge lab | building blocks of cognition

university of california, berkeley | february 2016 - august 2019

studied how inductive reasoning capabilities differ between brain hemispheres; designed, coded, and implemented new task to test working memory of healthy adults and children with traumatic brain injuries; collected and analyzed eyetracking data to use in concert with behavioral data

collins lab | computational cognitive neuroscience

university of california, berkeley | october 2016 - august 2019

worked on multi-year project studying how adolescence changes learning; collected and analyzed data for self-designed senior thesis; proposed and rigorously tested computational models of behavior

research mentoring

badre lab | january 2020 - present

supervise and train six undergraduate students in research practice, coding, and data analysis. one student was awarded summer grant money (2021) for continuing her work with me, and is pursuing a senior thesis on the project

bunge lab | september 2018 - may 2019

hired, trained, and supervised a team of five undergraduate researchers to assist in data collection on a project using eyetracking. led weekly coding classes for the group so they could learn data analysis
