LAURA BATTERINK, PH.D.

Principal Investigator

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology and a core member of the Brain and Mind Institute at Western.  My background and training are in cognitive neuroscience and I am broadly interested in many aspects of learning, with a particular interest in how implicit and explicit memory mechanisms contribute to language acquisition.

PRIYA KALRA, PH.D.

Postdoctoral Researcher

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the BrainsCAN program at Western.  I am very interested in how implicit and explicit processes interact in the course of learning and in the development of expertise.  I use a combination of behavioral, computational, and imaging methods to explore these questions.  On the personal side, I enjoy cooking, making and listening to music, and spending quality time with my cats.
