Biography

Eda Mizrak is a Marie Curie Fellow funded by UKRI and a memory researcher in the Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford. Her research investigates fundamental aspects of human memory, including working memory and long-term memory (LTM), using a diverse methodological toolkit that encompasses behavioral experiments, computational modeling, and cognitive neuroscience. Mizrak's current research program aims to uncover factors that help expand the limits of working memory (WM) and explore individual differences in memory retention. Her work has shown that individuals can better preserve information in working memory when given time to encode new information and that familiar chunks of information, such as well-known number sequences, enhance memory retention. Future research will focus on examining individual differences in the observed benefits of WM retention.
