 About Alex Huk

Alex Huk received his Ph.D. in Psychology (Neuroscience Area) from Stanford University in 2001. Research in Dr. Huk's lab attempts to understand how our brains accrue, weigh, and remember evidence. To address these issues, they measure neural activity while observers make decisions about visual stimuli and communicate their decisions with motor responses. These experiments are especially interesting when definitive decisions are required in response to sensory evidence that is ambiguous, weak, or derived from multiple sources. Studies focus on understanding the links between neural activity and behavior as simultaneously measured during the performance of sensory decision-making tasks. Their work includes fMRI experiments performed at the new UT Imaging Research Center.
