Logan, Palmeri, Schall awarded Chancellor’s Award for Research
At the Fall Faculty Assembly, Gordon Logan, Tom Palmeri, and Jeff Schall were awarded a Chancellor’s Award for Research for the theoretical and empirical work summarized in their wonderful 2007 Psychological Review paper. Their research has combined behavioral, electrophysiological, and computational methods to test and refine alternative models of the inhibitory control processes that are recruited during the stop-signal paradigm. It is very important to acknowledge additionally Leanne Boucher, who clearly has played a very central role in this line of work. Leanne would also be a co-winner of this award were it not for the restriction that only tenure-track and tenured faculty can be nominated for Chancellor’s Awards. We congratulate and celebrate all four of our colleagues, who have conducted a line of work that stands as a model for interdiscplinary research in the areas of cognitive science and cognitive neuroscience.
