Interests
My research examines how the brain combines sensory, motor, and cognitive
cues to form internal models of the external world. Specifically, my research
interests focus on understanding the representation of auditory information in
the cortex, how auditory information is integrated with cognitive processes
such as attention, motor planning, or memory, and how auditory and visual
information is combined to form unified sensory percepts.
