Audrey Duarte, Ph.D.

Being a first-generation college student, I never imagined I’d one day be a professor. I’m happy to tell you about that journey sometime. I am honored to collaborate with a diverse team of undergraduates and graduate students, postdocs, and faculty who love working to understand memory and the brain as much as I do.

Sarah Henderson, Ph.D.

My research uses behavioural and neuroimaging techniques to explore how age-related differences in executive functions, such as attentional control and inhibition, influence memory across the lifespan. I’m interested in exploring how health and environmental factors may contribute to these relationships and to age-related memory impairments more broadly.

Ryan McCurdy, Ph.D.

My current interests are broadly in human memory systems and the processes that underpin our knowledge of ourselves, others, the world around us, and the rules and regularities that govern their interactions. More specifically my focus lies in how we use the rich flow of information from multi-modal sources during communication to curate our memory in support of flexible language use, and how this process may be disrupted with neurologic insult (e.g., traumatic brain injury).

Jess Campbell, B.S.

My primary research interest is exploring group and individual differences in episodic memory performance across the adult lifespan. In particular, I am interested in studying how different intrinsic and extrinsic factors (e.g. stress, depression, sleep quality, socioeconomic status, etc.) may impact these differences.

Zoe Li, B.S.

I am interested in the cognitive neuroscience of aging and culture.

Ahhyun Seo, M.S.

My main research interests are individual differences in cognitive aging. I'm particularly interested in how emotional problems, such as depression and anxiety, interplay with memory in the aging process. My current research focuses on how culture influences memory strategies and the effects of acculturation stress on memory performance using EEG techniques.

Chuu Nyan, B.A.

Paulina Trujillo Perez, LMFT, CGT

I was born and raised in Chiapas, Mexico. I received her B.A. in Psychology from Universidad de las Americas-Puebla, Mexico and her MA in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology from Naropa University, in Boulder, Colorado; a Buddhist inspired university where I studied mindfulness and Gestalt therapy. I have worked in community mental health, school settings and private practice providing therapy for English and Spanish speaking adults and couples. I am excited to be back to research and is helping UT’s Memory and Aging Lab with community outreach and recruitment.

Sidni Justus, Ph.D.

I am currently an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Kennesaw State University. My research interests span cognition, memory, and attention in developmental disorders including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I have explored these from both early childhood and aging perspectives.

Kyoungeun Lee, Ph.D.

Soroush Mirjalili, Ph.D.

I am interested in how different cognitive functions (such as attention and perception) are associated with episodic memory, and how episodic memory processes change with aging.
