Overview

Nicholas B. Turk-Browne is a researcher affiliated with Yale University in the United States, specializing primarily in the field of neuroscience. Their work encompasses a range of subfields including cognitive neuroscience, cellular and molecular neuroscience, developmental and educational psychology, computer vision and pattern recognition, and radiology, nuclear medicine, and imaging.

The main research topics Nicholas focuses on involve neural dynamics and brain function, memory and neural mechanisms, functional brain connectivity studies, visual perception and processing mechanisms, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, face recognition and perception, and neural and behavioral psychology studies.

Their recent publications demonstrate a focus on both cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying learning and brain function. These include:

  • Learning hierarchical sequence representations across human cortex and hippocampus (2021, Science Advances)
  • The prevalence and importance of statistical learning in human cognition and behavior (2020, Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences)
  • Statistical prediction of the future impairs episodic encoding of the present (2020, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences)
  • Re-imagining fMRI for awake behaving infants (2020, Nature Communications)
  • Evidence of hippocampal learning in human infants (2021, Current Biology)

Frequent collaborators in their work include Cameron T. Ellis, Tristan S. Yates, Kenneth A. Norman, Brynn E. Sherman, and Kathryn N. Graves, indicating strong collaborative research across multiple studies.

Nicholas has published frequently in venues such as bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal of Vision, Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and NeuroImage. These outlets highlight their engagement with both preprint and peer-reviewed formats relevant to neuroscience and cognitive science fields.
