My research seeks to understand how the human brain binds separate pieces of information into coherent representations in working memory. In particular, I study how features such as color and spatial location are integrated, maintained, and used to guide goal-directed behavior. Combining functional neuroimaging with intracranial electrophysiological recordings, my work examines feature binding as a dynamic network-level process rather than a function of isolated brain regions. I am especially interested in how distributed neural systems coordinate information over time, allowing transient sensory inputs to be transformed into stable and behaviorally relevant memory representations. By investigating the temporal and network mechanisms of feature binding, my research aims to provide a deeper understanding of how the human brain organizes information flexibly, supports working memory, and enables complex cognition.
