Welcome to the Oakland University Cognition and Behavior Laboratory
The research in our laboratory primarily focuses on the common, basic, processes that determine what we learn and what we remember, as well as how this learning and memory takes place. For this purpose, we use a variety of species ranging from invertebrates to humans, as well as a variety of techniques such as the use of pharmaceuticals, complex behavioral training, and eyetracking technology.
A primary focus of the laboratory is student training. Thus, we are also actively investigating the factors that favor or hinder progress in STEM careers, especially in at-risk and underrepresented populations.
