Research into human memory is intriguing to me because it explores mechanistic explanations for various phenomena. Memory, especially 'working memory', seems to be a crucial element in many psychological processes, spanning language, fluid intelligence, mathematics competency, and even mental health. Past experience in memory systems research in computers informs my current investigations into human memory. My research with Brad Postle explores the neural bases of information representation and retention in working memory. We use fMRI neuroimaging techniques to address our questions, and draw on both univariate and multivariate statistical methods in our analyses.
