Research summary
AI-generated

Hongmi Lee studies how the brain forms, stores, and recalls memories, especially for real-world events and spontaneous thoughts. The work uses brain imaging (fMRI) combined with behavioral measures like verbal recall and 'think aloud' reports to understand how meaning and narrative structure shape memory over time. This research also touches on the reliability of analysis methods used across neuroimaging and behavioral science.
