Talia Konkle's lab uses human functional neuroimaging to explore how representational spaces of the mind are mapped onto the surface of the brain. She focuses on high-level vision: how do we recognize and organize our knowledge about objects, scenes, and...
Snow studies language and literacy development in monolinguals and bilinguals, exploring in particular the relation between language and literacy skills.
Professor Shieber studies communication with humans through natural languages, with computers through programming languages, and with both through graphical languages.
My students and I study the mechanisms through which emotional and social factors influence judgment and decision making. We take an interdisciplinary approach to these topics, drawing primarily on psychology and economics to examine emotional...
Research in my lab explores how children learn language, how language encodes meaning (semantics), how people understand speech as they are hearing it, and how these processes are affected by developmental disorders (e.g., autism) or differences in the...
Nelson's research interests are broadly concerned with developmental cognitive neuroscience, an interdisciplinary field that requires expertise in developmental neuroscience and cognitive developmental psychology. His specific interests are concerned...
My lab focuses on synaptic plasticity: cellular mechanisms, development of functional networks and links to behavior.
Our lab is interested in the neural circuitry of the primate visual cortex and how it relates to perception and visually guided behavior. Our current focus is on areas of the brain that make calculations about visual motion.
