    Welcome to the CC Laboratory at UC Davis!

    Join us!
    We are interested in how cognition arises from the brain.  Specifically, the current research in the lab focuses on investigating neural circuits and dynamics underlying three important cognitive functions, including visual attention, decision-making, and reward learning. A complementary objective of work in our Lab is to develop novel and innovative methods to understand and improve these essential cognitive functions.

    For a general overview of our research themes, please see
