Michael Lewis Epstein

I am currently a postdoctoral associate in the Department for Psychological and Brain Sciences at Boston University, working with Rachel Denison on questions of temporal attention.

I completed my PhD in the Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience program at The Graduate Center, CUNY, working with Tatiana Emmanouil on questions of the temporal dynamics of ensemble perception. I served as a graduate fellow with the Futures Initiative at the Graduate Center, a group dedicated to fostering equity and innovation in the academy.

I've taught introductory neuroscience at the City College of New York, and research methods in psychology at Baruch College, and have served as a writing fellow at the CUNY School of Professional Studies. Prior to starting at CUNY, I worked as a research assistant at the Nathan Kline Institute with Daniel Javitt and Elisa Dias. I am deeply committed to equity and transparency in science, and regularly volunteer with public science initiatives.
