I am an Emeritus Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Jyväskylä. I have held research and academic positions at the Academy of Finland, Rutgers University, the University of Kuopio, and the University of Jyväskylä. I have led research groups in cognitive neurobiology and neural plasticity.
My research integrates behavioral, cognitive, and systems neuroscience, with a focus on hippocampal oscillations and transient population events, synaptic plasticity and memory, and interactions between autonomic and neural processes in learning and behavioral synchronization.
I employ a wide range of methods spanning intra- and extracellular electrophysiology, EEG, functional MRI, and psychophysiological measurements.
