Tim Gentner

Primary Investigator

Tim Gentner is the PI of the lab. He has been running Gentner Lab since 2006.

Michael Turvey

Grad Student

Michael is a PhD candidate from the Psychology department primarily interested in predictive coding in an auditory context, using trained behavior. Specifically, he is investigating how expectation induced by behavioral training in the European starling affects representation at different levels in the auditory hierarchy.
