I worked with post doctorate Marta Vergara in Professor Swaab's neurolinguistics lab, studying the neural correlates of language comprehension and assessing the integration of several linguistic elements (syntax, letter recognition, thematic and semantic information) in real time.

Dr. Vergara and I worked primarily on two projects: -a triplet sentence primer study, where we recorded EEGs of subjects' reaction times to an anticipated word, ambiguous word, and incongruous word in the same position of the same sentence. I edited and co-wrote the sentence triplets, and was responsible for scheduling and preparing subjects for the experiment, including explaining procedures, placing them with brain caps and electrodes, and recording EEGs. -a reverse letter experiment, where we asked subjects to determine whether or not rapidly flashing, singular words were true words or not. We replaced letters within a certain percentage of words with mirror letters (IE "p" for "q", "b" for "d") and recorded EEGs, analyzing the data for reaction times and comparing it to accuracy rates. My responsibilities for this experiment were similar to those listed above. The results from the reverse letter experiment were later published as an abstract and presented on a poster at the Psychonomic Society 2011.
