Primary Investigator

Dr. Timothy Ricker
Ph.D. University of Missouri, 2013
My research follows two main directions. The first explores how humans maintain information across time and in the face of interfering tasks. The second examines the parameters and processes involved in creating stable working memory representations. I use behavioral experimentation, Bayesian estimation, and mathematical modeling to examine these questions. Contact: Timothy.Ricker@usd.edu Click here to download C.V. |

Kelly CottonM.A. City University of New York, 2020
B.S./B.A. University of Rochester, 2015 My interests include working memory, consolidation into long-term memory, and how these functions differ in various populations. I'm particularly interested in using neuroimaging and eye-tracking to inform our knowledge of human cognition. I graduated from the University of Rochester in 2015, with a dual B.S./B.A. in Brain and Cognitive Sciences/Linguistics. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Psychology at the CUNY Graduate Center.

Madisen LavinMy interests include the integration of memory and marketing. I joined the lab to explore why certain ads are better retained than others. I am planning on graduating with an undergraduate degree in Strategic Communication and Ad PR, with coursework in neuroscience. After graduation I plan on working toward better understanding the relationship between advertising and the human brain.
