I am an expert in applying EEG measures of brain activity to investigate cognitive processes. I have conducted studies on attention, perception, decision making, and working memory. In particular, I have published several studies investigating the attention related phenomenon known as Inhibition of Return (IOR). Recently, I have began investigating the effect of biases on high level decision making and belief formation.
