معرفی
Kia Nobre is the Wu Tsai Professor of Psychology at Yale University, affiliated with the School of Medicine. Her research focuses on understanding the neural systems that support adaptive cognition and behavior, particularly how the brain prioritizes and integrates sensory input and memory.
- Education: PhD in Psychology, 1993, Yale University
She employs behavioral methods (e.g., psychophysics, eye tracking) combined with advanced neuroscience techniques (MEG, EEG, fMRI) to study cognitive domains like attention, working memory, and long-term memory. Her work emphasizes dynamic environments and cross-domain integration.
Recent publications explore flexible prioritization of sensory/motor information in working memory (2025, PLoS Biology) and attentional shifts between perception and memory (2025, Neuron). Her research is funded by national/international grants and philanthropy.
- Scientific Awards: Wu Tsai Professor of Psychology
The Brain & Cognition Lab at Yale, under her leadership, fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation in human neuroscience. Lab members include postdoctoral associates, researchers, and alumni, with lab facilities at 100 College St.
