Director

Hakwan Lau

As the director of the SIN group, Hakwan aims to uncover the fundamental reason humans experience the world differently from other animals. Learn more about his profile here.

Research Professor

Qi Lin

Qi is broadly interested in learning and memory, and how individual differences in these processes interact with other aspects of the mind.

Postdoc

Tomoya Nakamura

Tomoya has a background in psychophysics, specializing in the temporal aspects of visual perception. His current research utilizes fMRI to explore the fundamental distinctions between perceptual and mnemonic processes.

Jane Yook

Jane’s research interests stem from how we make sense of our world, encompassing areas such as visual perception and decision-making. She uses psychophysics and neuroimaging techniques in her work.

Konstantin Demin

Kostya conducts neurofeedback experiments with humans and rodents. His research interests include intelligence and consciousness.

Student

Olga Gulka

Olga’s research interests include cognitive functions—particularly memory and attention—and research methods such as functional MRI and eye-tracking.

Sara Mohammadzadeh

Sara is a Master’s student interested in consciousness and unconscious processing. She aims to use fMRI and computational tools to explore how brain activity patterns can be used to treat phobias without conscious exposure.

Research Assistant

Hyun Seo Lee (Hannah)

Hannah’s research interests revolve around attention, perception, and decision- making in changing dynamics, using psychophysics and neuroimaging. She likes tea and cake.

Minjun Jeon

SIN LAB에서 RA로 일하고 있는 전민준입니다. 실험 보조와 홍보 업무를 주로 맡고 있습니다^^

Jun Seo Hwang

Jun Seo conducts psychophysics experiments on humans and monkeys. His research interests center on consciousness.

Raihyung Lee

Raihyung conducts behavioral experiments on humans. His research interest focuses on metacognition.

Wonyi Che

Wonyi conducts psychophysics experiments on humans and rodents. Her research interests include memory, aging, neurodevelopmental disorders, and dementia.

Lab Manager

Chae Eun Bang

Chaeeun studied political science and international relations, with a particular focus on European integration and how supranational institutions shape policy and cooperation. As a lab manager, she bridges administrative operations and research support, facilitating smooth and effective collaboration across teams.

Mina Kim

Mina has a background in the performing arts. She supports research by overseeing lab operations and fostering collaboration.

SKKU Faculty Collaborators

Hansem Sohn

Hansem investigates how the brain measures and processes time using multiple approaches: behavioral experiments, computational modeling, human neuroimaging, and electrophysiology in non-human primates.

Joonyeol Lee

Joonyeol explores how attention and cognition modulate sensory neural representation and transmission of the neural information to the downstream motor areas in the brain.

Kayuet Liu

Kayuet’s group focuses on mental health conditions like depression and anxiety disorders, and their link to aphantasia, using large cohort data analysis.

Seng Bum Michael Yoo

Michael is interested in understanding the neural population inferring the world when an agent is foraging/hunting in interactive and dynamic environments.

Seok-Jun Hong

Seok-Jun’s lab specializes in brain network modeling and the data-driven subtyping of developmental conditions. His research integrates neuroinformatics, machine learning, and neuroimaging data across human and non-human primates.
