Research Interest
My research broadly focuses on attention, perception, and memory. I have explored the cognitive mechanisms behind visual search and the flexible top-down control in perception and memory. I am interested in both the neural and cognitive processes involved during tasks and employs techniques such as fMRI and eye-tracking in her research.
Prior Experience
Before joining the Brain and Cognition Lab as a postgraduate research associate, I served as an undergraduate research assistant at Joy Geng’s Lab and wrote my undergraduate honors thesis.
Personal Interests
Outside of academia, I dedicate time to practicing the Pipa, a traditional Chinese musical instrument.
