Pare Tech.com Thoughts and Ideas From Somewhere

A little while back ago I approached one of my professors, Dr. Mary Baker, about research lab opportunities for undergraduate students. We talked for a while about various opportunities that existed within the department and if I was far enough along in my studies to where it would be beneficial for all parties. One thing led to another and today I was given my first task in the Neuro-Imaging and Cognition Engineering Lab (NICE).

"The mission of the NICE lab is to develop models of perception, memory, neurological diseases and language as they relate to the underlying structure and neural circuitry of the human brain. It also addresses neurologically brain-damaged individuals and how their impairments reveal fundamental principles of brain development and neuro-cognitive functioning."

At the moment my long term purpose in the lab is still uncertain but my work for the short term will be assisting Matthew Kerr with MatLab programming, used for data analysis of EEG results for a current study. Matt is in, what appears to be, the final stages of having his research paper, "EEG Coherence Analysis During Visuospatial Reasoning" accepted for publications. We wish Matt the best both now and in the future.
