Graduate Students

Scott Janetsky

Scott is a second year graduate student in the Cognitive Science program. He is enthusiastic about mapping the cognitive processes underlying visual cognition using behavioral measures and EEG. He has secondary interests ranging from philosophy of mind to clinical neuropsychology. In his free time, Scott enjoys photography, traveling, and cooking.

KuoWei Chen

KuoWei is in his fourth year in the Cognitive Science Ph.D. program. He is interested in investigating the cognitive mechanisms that underlie decision-making processes when the decision has to be made on the basis of uncertain sensory stimuli. Methodologically, he is interested in using computational modeling.

Undergraduate research assistants

Ashley Ha

Ashley is a senior psychology major. Her interests center on the architecture of cognition, with curiosity about how patterned errors manifest in selection and control—and what they can reveal about the underlying constraints. She is also interested in how metacognition and individual differences tune those limits across people and contexts. She aims to learn neural methods to complement behavioral approaches. Outside the lab, she enjoys snowboarding and spending time with friends and family.

Emily Druce

Hey! I’m Emily and I’m a junior majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in psychology. I am utterly fascinated by neuropsychology, such as perception, memory, and especially sleep and dreaming. My interest in this field was sparked by creative writing, and now I hope to expand my knowledge on deeper levels of how the brain works.

Jordan Dolinar

I am a junior majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Psychology. My research interests focus on the cognitive aspects of neuroscience, particularly the neural mechanisms underlying memory and attention. I am especially interested in how these cognitive processes are affected in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, and how studying brain function and dysfunction can lead to earlier detection.

Lingjing Liu

Lingjing is a second year master student in Applied Behavior Analysis program. She is particularly interested in continuity fields and facial recognition in cognition. Outside the lab, she enjoys watching anime, reading, and traveling.

Mckay Turner-Colling

Hi, my name is McKay! I'm a recent graduate from ASU and am interested in how our cognitive visual biases update in day to day life via environmental, interpersonal, and individual changes. I hope to use these findings to bring about a greater understanding of our visual neural network and employ its elusive properties for the benefit of cognitive and behavioral change.

Sanjana Karthik

Sanjana Karthik is a sophomore majoring in Neuroscience in Barrett, The Honors College. Her interests lie in language, memory, perception, and cognition, with a particular focus on how cognitive biases subtly influence what we notice, recall, and believe. She hopes to explore these questions by studying how our experiences and expectations shape the way we think and interpret our surroundings. Beyond academics, she enjoys drawing, reading gothic literature, and learning new languages.
