After my Undergraduate degree in Physics from University of Madras, I obtained my Master degree (ME) in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Science specializing in biosignal processing. I joined the Doctoral Program (Cognitive Psychology) at University of Georgia in 1992. In my doctoral work with Dr. James Brown, I investigated the interaction between attention and spatial frequency processing mechanisms. I did my postdoctoral work at University of Louisville with Dr. Edward A Essock on diagnostic algorithms for Glaucoma. Before joining CBCS, I worked at the Biomedical Engineering Research Centre at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. I joined Centre of Behavioural and Cognitive Sciences (CBCS), University of Allahabad in December 2003. At CBCS, I use multiple approaches to study mental processes. I have wide ranging interests in cognitive science and seem to be (accidentally!) getting involved in projects in different areas of cognitive science.
