Research Interests

I am interested in many aspects of memory, especially spatial and episodic memory. My research includes topics as how we update in our environment, how we represent the complicated out world into a whole and the brain mechanisms underlie, neural foundations of successful retrieval of previous learned stimuli, and how we consolidate our memory during sleeping time. I use intracranial EEG (ECoG), fMRI, simultaneous EEG/fMRI, and behavioral study methods to address on these issues.
