KATRIJN SCHRUERS

Kat helps oversee the daily operations of the lab. She did her studies in Clinical and Cognitive neuroscience at Maastricht University.  Her research interests focus on brain plasticity, particularly how learning and sleep influence changes in the brain, exploring potential ways to target this, and how to measure changes with neuroimaging. 

Postdoctoral Researchers

MARCEL KEHL

Marcel investigates memory consolidation using human single-neuron recordings and iEEG, focusing on the impact of multi-modal stimulation during sleep including closed-loop techniques. With a Medical Degree from the University of Bonn and a Masters in Physics from the University of Toronto, he pursued his PhD in Neuroscience under Prof. Mormann at the University of Bonn. He is funded by the ERC.

PIN-CHUN CHEN

Pin-Chun investigates sleep-dependent cognitive enhancement using EEG, fMRI, and iEEG. Prior to joining the lab, she completed her PhD in Cognitive Sciences from the University of California, Irvine (USA), followed by one year of postdoctoral training at the University of Pennsylvania (USA). She is funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.

SIMON FAGHEL SOUBEYRAND

Simon is interested in understanding how the specific content of our percepts and experiences guides behaviour. He uses a combination of EEG, psychophysics, and machine learning to probe these processes. Simon completed his PhD at the Université de Montréal and is a Royal Society Newton International Fellow.

PhD Students

JUDE THOM

Jude explores neural activity relating to the formation and retrieval of memories, with a particular interest in using closed-loop systems to influence memory performance. He is funded by the BBSRC.

XIANHUI HE

Xianhui takes interest in using (i)EEG/MEG and human neuron data to investigate the neural and computational mechanisms of memory. He is funded by the Clarendon Fund in partnership with St John's College and the Department of Experimental Psychology.

MATHEW KOLLAMKULAM

Mathew is interested in using multimodal brain imaging methods (EEG, fMRI and structural MRI) to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying memory consolidation in humans. He is funded by the Clarendon scholarship.

Masters Students

GLORIA CHARITE

Gloria is interested in understanding the neural mechanisms underlying encoding and retrieval. Prior to coming to Oxford, she was a member of the Dynamic Perception and Memory Lab at Columbia University where she investigated how encoding processes modulate retention in a classroom context. She is a Rhodes Scholar, and, in the future, she hopes to contribute to bridging the gap between cognitive psychology research and education practices.
