His research investigates the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying language processing and memory systems. Education: B.A. in Neuroscience and Behavior, Columbia University, 2003 Ph.D. in Cognitive Science, Johns Hopkins University, 2010 Dr. Fischer-Baum's research integrates written and spoken language processing with short-term memory systems through cognitive neuropsychology. His lab employs computational modeling, behavioral experiments, and neuroimaging techniques (fMRI, ERP/EEG, tDCS) to examine representations and processes across diverse populations including unimpaired undergraduates, congenitally deaf/blind individuals, and brain-damaged patients. Current projects focus on written language processing mechanisms, sequence representation organization, and temporal dynamics of cognition revealed through perseveration errors in serial order processing. Advising: Dr. Fischer-Baum currently mentors graduate students Colin Noe (EEG/ERP methods in spoken language perception), Sarah Irons (computational cognitive neuropsychology), Katia Kazhuro (aphasia language production deficits), and Yu Lu (psycholinguistics with Martin Lab). His former doctoral students include Yingxue Tian (Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute), Mingjun Zhai (Hong Kong Polytechnic University), and Ivanova Veras de Jesús (Rice BMED Lab). Lab: The Neuroplasticity Lab maintains a problem-centered research approach studying neural adaptation to expertise, cross-system cognitive interactions, and cortical reorganization following brain damage. The lab collaborates with Rice's Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience group and hosts visiting scholars like Qingqing Qu from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, with Charlotte Wilkinson serving as lab manager.

His academic career spans over three decades with significant contributions to the study of modern Japanese literature, particularly focusing on the works of Yokomitsu Riichi and Kawabata Yasunari. Dr. Toeda's research interests center on the intricate relationship between literature and media in 20th century Japan, with special emphasis on censorship mechanisms during the Occupation period. His scholarly work examines how historical events such as the Great Kanto Earthquake and wartime experiences shaped literary production and reception. He has developed expertise in textual analysis, manuscript studies, and the examination of how literary works transitioned across different media formats including newspapers, magazines, and film adaptations. Toeda's publications reveal a consistent scholarly trajectory focused on understanding Japanese modernism through the lens of media environments. His recent works analyze the complex interplay between authors and censorship apparatuses, particularly examining how Yokomitsu Riichi and other writers navigated the dual censorship systems of Japan's Home Ministry and the Allied Occupation forces. His research demonstrates how literary texts bear the traces of these regulatory frameworks while maintaining artistic integrity. 30th Yamanashi Literary Award for 'Yokomitsu Riichi and Modern Media: From the Earthquake to the Occupation' (2022) Selected for the 6th Matsumoto Seicho Research Encouragement Program (2004) Kubota Utsuho Award (1994) As an educator, Toeda supervises graduate research and teaches courses on Japanese literary criticism, contemporary literary and cultural studies, and global Japanese literary studies.
