I am an early-career researcher from Skopje, Macedonia, seeking to understand the complex dynamics between high-level cognition and behavior. I currently work as a Research Assistant at the Sreenivasan Lab in Abu Dhabi, UAE, where we use behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging approaches to study how the brain forms and implements goals. My research focuses on understanding how the brain integrates sensory and motor information via visual working memory to enable flexible, precise behavior.I concluded my undergraduate studies with New York University Abu Dhabi, where I earned BA in Psychology in May 2021. As part of my studies I pursued undergraduate research where I worked on projects about ensemble perception, visual working memory, and mental imagery. Apart from research, I led leadership initiative for middle-school and high-school girls in the UAE - Girls' Education Network, and served as the Student Body President. During my time as a student, I also studied and lived in Shanghai, China and New York, United States. You can reach me at teodora.hristovska@nyu.edu.
