Hi, I am Pinzhe (Zach) Zhao.
I am a final-year Cognitive Science student at the University of Edinburgh. I am also a member of the BoCoCo Lab.
I am interested in building computational models that aim to reverse engineer the information-processing algorithms of human thought. To evaluate these models, we conduct online behavioral experiments and collect empirical data.
