- Analyzing and drawing insights from cognitive data including BOLD signal acquired from the portable optical brain imaging (fNIRS) device.- devising experimental design and programming computerized tasks to measure cognitive functions.

- Studied human decision-making process underlying memory judgment and tested descriptive and computational models for memory signal distribution through simulation and empirical evidence. - Examined effect of external factors (e.g., probabilistic & social hints from others) influencing memory-decision (judging whether s/he has encountered presented item or not). - Examined effect of internal factors (e.g., item properties such as lexical and semantic features of words - derived from NLP methods) and their contribution to brain activation during memory encoding.
