Dr. Jennifer Groh

Biography

Jennifer M. Groh is a Professor in the Departments of Psychology and Neuroscience, Neurobiology, Computer Science, and Biomedical Engineering at Duke University. Her research primarily addresses how sensory and motor systems interact, particularly focusing on the cognitive processes involved in sensorimotor integration. Groh's work explores the neural representation of these interactions, emphasizing how visual and auditory stimuli are perceived together. Her studies have demonstrated that these perceptions often arise from a common source, influencing how individuals perceive speakers in various environments, such as television sets and movie theaters. Since joining Duke in 2006, she has contributed significantly to the field of cognitive neuroscience, particularly at the intersections of sensory processing and motor control. She has received numerous grants and has mentored students in the medical and scientific community.
