Anna Blumenthal

Assistant Professor of Psychology

Bio

Dr. Anna Blumenthal is a cognitive neuroscientist, jack of many trades but expert in memory and perception. Her goal is to build better models of these processes through including understudied populations. Her focus is on Africa, with projects in Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Africa, and Namibia. Beyond specific projects, she uses community building and open-science to catalyze cognition research in Africa more broadly. In service of this, she co-founded the , and led a project to create ZolaBongo, an open-source app for collecting data on tablets without internet. Dr. Blumenthal enjoys exchanging knowledge with students in both the classroom and the lab, and looks forward to running EEG studies in the lab and the field. Outside of work, you can find her throwing a frisbee over and over and over for her border collie mix Alfred.
