Scholarly Interests: My research interests center on the mechanisms by which animals learn predictive relationships in their environment (e.g., Pavlovian and operant conditioning). Using rodent models, I investigate both the circumstances under which animals learn these predictive associations, as well as the neural systems that underly the process. Of particular interest to me are the mechanisms by which animals use contextual cues to retrieve "ambiguous" memories, and response recovery phenomena observed following extinction procedures (i.e., renewal, reinstatement).
