Hello
Hello
Daniel joined the IntERPrET lab in 2022 after graduating from the University of Oklahoma with bachelor’s degrees in linguistics and biochemistry. Outside of the lab, Daniel enjoys traveling, learning languages, and ultimate frisbee. He is a proud Kansas Citian (specifically the Missouri side), and his hometown has given him an appreciation of hospitality, friendliness, and, most importantly, barbeque.
All About Me
Daniel’s overall research interest is understanding the changes in neural processing during second language acquisition. Merging his background in linguistics and biochemistry, Daniel bridges two distinct fields connected to language science. He is hoping to provide a better understanding of how second language acquisition occurs, leading to better tools for second language acquisition, and expanding access to language resources.
Daniel is currently investigating the co-registration of eye-tracking (ET) and electroencephalography (EEG) and how these two techniques can provide a complementary understanding of language processing. Daniel is investigating how the N400 component, often associated with semantic information processing, varies according to cognitive effort, measured via pupillometry while listening to an audio with code-switches.
Daniel is an active member of the UCSC Out in STEM (oSTEM) chapter and is committed to providing mentorship and resources for LGBTQ+ scientists.
