I’m really curious about the brain’s underlying mechanisms for generalized learning during rest. Well, even when we’re not doing much, our brains are still working! So, I aim to understand how our brains simplify and abstract memories from past experiences into general rules.
As a neurophysiologist, I’m focused on studying sharp-wave ripple neuronal activity correlations across brain regions like the cortex and hippocampus in non-human primate. I believe this research will improve our understanding of our adaptibility to changing environments.

I’m interested in understanding the neural circuitry of sensorimotor processing in the presence of cognitive control. To study the mechanism of this processing, I use Bayesian modeling and electrophysiology in both humans and monkeys. I believe that the dynamics within an area and between different areas can be explained using Bayesian theory.

I am interested in perceptual information processing, and how we generalize response actions for novel situations. Utilizing feedback and feedforward information streams, we quickly adapt, change, or refine strategies and I wish to understand the structure of how these streams coexist. I believe that information integrated in the Hippocampal Complex may hold some of the answers I am looking for.
I am also very passionate about cooking, hiking, and exploring South Korea, basically just trying to experience as many new things as possible while I am here. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions.

I’m interested in neural mechanism and representation during sensorimotor behavior. Especially, I’m studying how expectations about the speed of moving objects are generated by analyzing smooth pursuit eye movement data and EEG data from human.
