Sreejan Kumar

Hello! My name is Sreejan. I am a fourth year PhD student at the Princeton Neuroscience Institute, where I am advised by Tom Griffiths (depts Psychology & Computer Science)  and Jon Cohen (depts Psychology & Neuroscience). Before that, I graduated from Yale University with majors in Computer Science and Statistics & Data Science. During undergrad, I worked with Marvin Chun and Nicholas Turk-Browne (dept of Psychology). 

A core essence of human intelligence is the constant drive to understand the world around them. I am broadly interested in how human brains take experience in the world and extracts abstract knowledge that helps them learn faster. I'm interested in studying this process in a variety of domains such as reinforcement learning, language processing, and visual perception. I utilize a combination of artificial neural network simulations, large-scale online behavior experiments, and brain imaging analysis in my research.
