About Me

Hi, I am Qingqing Yang, and I just started my PhD in Cogitive Neuroscience at the Ohio State University this Aug 2024, working with Prof. Hsin-Hung Li and Prof. Julie Golomb. last update: Aug 2024

Research Interests

  • Cognition: visual perception, attention, memory, learning and decision making
  • Neural Imaging: task-fMRI, rs-fMRI, dMRI, EEG, TMS
  • Computational Neuroscience: neural geometry, neural dynamics
  • Applied Machine Learning: reinforcement learning, Bayesian Inferences, Transformer-based models

I love computational modeling in general. I question how metal computation is realized to perform complex functions among human and models, and how the deepened understanding of each aspect benefit each other.

Research Experience

  • [Aug 2023 - Apr 2024] as an Assistant Research Scientist @NYU
    Work with Prof. Clay Curtis, running a TMS, fMRI, and eye-tracking integrated spatial working memory study, which focuses on the role of parietal cortex.
  • [Sep 2023 - Apr 2024] as an Assistant Research Scientist @NYU
    Work with Prof. Cate Hartley, and Dr. Noam Goldway, investigating the relationship among decision-making (RL parameters), developmental and psychiatric disorders, and their neural factors.

btw Noam is going to be a prof soon in London starting around 2025! Happy for you, Noam! Potentially hiring…
