In my laboratory, we are interested in explaining human cognitive abilities--especially memory, vision, learning, and how these abilities are modulated by emotion and social interaction--in terms of how the brain accomplishes them. By this approach, cognitive abilities are explained through the architecture, functions, and interactions of the underlying neural processing subsystems.
