Elissa Aminoff
Postdoctoral Researcher

Elissa Aminoff studies how our everyday experience with typical contexts (e.g., a kitchen) can affect our cognition. In the past, she has used experimental paradigms that involve memory and object recognition to examine the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying contextual associative processing. In some of her current research, she focuses on how contextual processing varies within individuals and the factors that influence the activation of contextual associations. Elissa completed her doctorate in 2008 at Harvard University advised by Daniel Schacter and Moshe Bar, and presently works with Mike Miller and Scott Grafton.
