Research interests
Life-long learning
- Development of episodic and prospective memory across the life span
- Neural correlates of incidental and intentional learning
- Cognitive and neural mechanisms of feedback-enhanced learning
- Implications of neurocognitive research for formalized teaching
Dynamics of response selection and neurocognitive control across the life span
- Role of expertise and motivation for regulating cognitive control with limited resources (due to advanced age or neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis or stroke)
- Micro and macro variations in cognitive control and conflict detection
- Role of neuronal maturation and declining integrity for cognitive control
Converging and Divergent Thinking
- Individual Differences in convergent and divergent thinking as mediated by Working Memory
- Neural Correlates of Convergent and Divergent Thinking (EEG oscillations and fNIRS)
- Impact of Emotional States for Creative Thinking
