I study how the brain makes sense of the world, combining experimental and computational approaches. My research goal is to decipher how our beliefs and goals shape our perception and action. To this end, I use psychophysics, eye-tracking, neuroimaging, and network models.

I am a Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University, working with Justin Gardner. Previously, I completed my Master's degree working with Sang-Hun Lee and Sukbin Lim, focusing on how the intrinsic attractor dynamics of human brain constrain decision-making and working memory. Before that, I studied Psychology, Statistics, and Biological Sciences at Seoul National University.
