Frontal and Basal Ganglia Contributions to Memory and Attention

In May 2010 I received my Ph.D. in neuroscience from the University of California, Berkeley; I received my bachelors degree in psychology in 2002 from the University of Southern California. Specifically I study the role that neuronal oscillations play in human cognition, with a specific focus on the role that neuroplasticity plays in cognition. I work with patients with brain damage or implanted electrodes to learn about how different brain regions communicate in memory and attention. I study how patients with brain damage recover from stroke or other kinds of neurological damage.

In April 2010 I was invited to give a talk at TEDxBerkeley, which is part of TED's local conference series. The video of that talk is available on YouTube below:

Here you'll find my professional CV, a list of my publications, and other professional stuff related to me being a brain guy. This CV is HUGE, by the way... definitely over-complete. But it's a good way for me to remember everything I've done.

For some of my papers I've also included a link to a short write-up about why I think the research is interesting. You don't have to read the paper, but hopefully these short pieces will give you an idea of what I'm doing and why. I've also included a direct link to the published version of the manuscript when possible.

Below is a video of a talk I gave at Google as part of their AtGoogleTalks tech talks series.
