Project Description
I am interested in how the mind controls itself. How do we selectively process one stimulus while avoiding distraction from other stimuli? Can salient stimuli (like a flashing banner ad on the web) capture spatial attention against your will? How do we set ourselves to perform tasks that serve our goals, rather than reacting reflexively to salient stimuli? What are the capacity limitations of the human mind? I am also interested in cognitive aging, cognitive neuroscience, and mathematical modeling.
Eligibility
I am currently seeking graduate students. Interested students are invited to contact me for further information about research opportunities and funding.
