Ian's area of research involves explicit and implicit memory with a particular focus on explicit recognition judgments; that is, the decision that someone or something was an element of an earlier personal experience. Using such methods as 1) statistical modeling of behavioral data, 2) examination of recognition in patients with focal brain damage and 3) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of healthy participants during various recognition tasks, he is exploring the complex processes which allow us to situate current experiences into our own unique personal pasts. He is also interested in non-memory decision process and its interactive mechanisms with mnemonic process. His research is funded by NIH. He teaches Myths and Mysteries of Memory (PSY105) and "Data Methods in Cognitive Psychology (PSY381)". |

Ana is interested in investigating the cognitive and neural bases of episodic memory judgments, employing fMRI and behavioral methods. Currently, she is studying how context information (e.g. distinctiveness of encoding) modulates what we remember and forget about past events and how it helps us to avoid errors of misattribution. Ana received her PhD degree from the University of Cambridge, England, working with Professor Lorraine K Tyler and Dr. Helen E Moss on semantic memory. She is also working with Dr. Scott Huettel. |

Norbou researches both the psychological and biological aspects of memory.
Currently, his research is focused on examining general and specific memory
retrieval processes underlying recognition, with a particular emphasis on
identifying the neural correlates of memory recruitment in young and older
adults. His recent post-doctoral research was focused on developing
computational models of memory, and specifically, to explain the typically
observed pattern of impaired (episodic) and intact (semantic) memory
performance with advancing age. As a general theme, Norbou is interested in
understanding the role of experience on memory and cognition both in the
short-term (cognitive skill-acquisition, learning, repetition) and across the
lifespan (cognitive aging). He is also working with Dr. Roberto Cabeza. |

Sanghoon is currently the 5th year graduate student . His Ph.D. focuses on the neural correlates of strategic memory retrieval. His recent work is to explore how and when decision criterion is adaptively employed for memory retrieval. He is also interested in how environmental information affects the memory/non-memory decision processes. Sanghoon received his MA degree from Yonsei University, working with Dr. Min-Shik Kim on visual attention and working memory. He will be working with Dr. Alison Adcock as a postdoctoral researcher. |

Andrea graduated from Iowa State University in the spring of 2006. At Iowa State, she studied false memory for colors with Dr. Anne Cleary. She joined Dr. Dobbins' lab in the fall of 2006 and is currently studying the neural correlates involved during source and item memory retrieval.
She is also a member of Dr. Beth Marsh's memory lab. |
