Current research interests: I am interested in implementing neuroimaging techniques in order to inform cognitive theory. Specifically, my research interests center on the cognitive domain of memory, of which I am interested in exploring the degree to which neuronal processes that support different types of memory (e.g., prospective, recognition, and source memory) are similar and distinct. Additionally, the associative mechanisms that support the binding of various contextual features into a mnemonic representation are of interest to me. To this end, I am conducting a variety of neuroimaging and behavioral experiments that are aimed at examining the neural and cognitive processes involved in prospective memory, recognition memory, retrieval facilitated learning, and free recall. Lastly, I also investigate the interaction of these cognitive processes and transient mood states. Publications: Knight, J. B., Meeks, J. T, Marsh, R. L., Cook, G. I., Brewer, G. A., & Hicks, J. L.
