Interests
I study how the brains of birds encode learned behaviors like song or
memory for food locations. Particular questions now being studied include
the neural basis for female song discrimination, and the interplay between
the hippocampus and other brain areas in spatial memory. I study these
questions in a variety of species in order to infer how these abilities evolved.
Now recruiting graduate students for IMAGINE, the Ithaca-Manhattan Graduate Initiative in Neuroscience. This NIH-funded training program is jointly sponsored by Cornell University and Weill Cornell Medical College.
