I received my doctoral degree from the department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where I worked with Prof. Anthony D. Wagner in the learning and memory lab (now @ Stanford). I am currently a Howard Hughes Medical Institute post-doctoral fellow with Prof. Randy L. Buckner at Harvard University.

I seek to understand the dynamic interaction between neural circuits and how these systems-level dynamics give rise to various aspects of brain function.

In my research so far, I have focused on episodic memory. The ability to remember a single episode depends on the complex orchestration of perception, attention, and cognitive control, as well as mnemonic processes. My research exploits recent advances in computational and neuroimaging approaches to studying the brain, using a diverse set of multi-modal behavioral, neuroimaging, and analysis methods - including high-resolution functional MRI at high field strengths, electrophysiological measures, and neural disruption in both humans and animals.
