Research Interests

I develop and apply computational models of learning and decision making. The main focus of my research is on experience-driven learning in uncertain environments that require sophisticated information processing. I use behavioral and neuroimaging experiments to study the neural and cognitive processes underlying these learning abilities in humans.
