Nina Rouhani

Principal Investigator

Hello! I am an incoming Assistant Professor in the Brain and Cognitive Science area (Department of Psychology) at the University of Southern California (January 2025).

 

I earned a joint PhD in Psychology and Neuroscience at Princeton University with a focus on the computational processes that govern learning, memory and decision-making. During my postdoctoral studies at Caltech, I have tested how this framework scales up to predict behavior in social, interactive and real-world settings.

 

I also completed a joint BA in History and Comparative Literature at Barnard College, and, relatedly, am an avid proponent of interdisciplinary work to help unravel and demystify (if possible) the profound complexities of the human experience.  

Join the lab!

InCog lab is recruiting PhD students (starting Fall 2025) and research specialists.
