Anaïs Llorens, PhD

Assistant Project Scientist in Cognitive Neuroscience

Knight Lab, University of California Berkeley

My research focuses on the interface between cognitive models and brain mechanisms, with a main emphasis on understanding interference in working memory and prediction in language.

My research is based on behavioral and electrophysiological experiments using EEG and intraEEG, conducted with healthy and pathological populations.

I am also actively engaged in promoting equity and diversity in STEM.
