I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurology at Duke University School of Medicine. I completed my PhD at Duke with Roberto Cabeza, where I was a student in the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience. I then trained at the Centre for Speech, Language and the Brain in Cambridge University under Lolly Tyler. I’m a cognitive neuroscientist with experience in behavioural modelling, psychological task design, neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, and the global and local changes in brain physiology and anatomy associated with aging.
