Biography

Timothy Rogers is a professor at the McPherson Eye Research Institute at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His research focuses on understanding human semantic memory, including the meanings of words, objects, and events. He investigates how semantic knowledge is stored and represented in the mind and brain, how it is acquired and developed, and how it degrades in individuals with dementia. He has published extensively on topics related to semantic memory and cognitive neuroscience, contributing to both academic knowledge and practical applications in psychology. Rogers holds a BA in Psychology and English Literature from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, and a PhD in Psychology from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Cognitive Neuroscience at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge, UK in 2004.
