I am a professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Science and the Department of Neurology. I run a research lab that focuses on brain research in humans. We investigate how healthy adults and neurological patients adjust their behavior to the complex demands of everyday life. I also run a free First-Generation Brain Research Workshop on campus that you should check out if you're interested. You can find it under brainworkshop.sites.uiowa.edu.

I can help you navigate the pitfalls of academic research and get you involved in research on campus if you are interested in that.

In my free time, I like to be outside, camp, hike, make furniture, cook, and spend time with my family.
