Brief Introduction
Dr. Teng joined the Department of Psychology as an assistant professor in 2022. Before, he worked in Max Planck Institutes in Frankfurt am Main and Berlin, Germany, and earned his PhD in Cognition and Perception at New York University. His lab aims to understand how human beings understand speech and appreciate music.
Research Interests
I am fascinated with dynamics across timescales in the brain and in the dynamic world. My research has been focusing on how the brain processes complex temporal sequences, regarding natural stimuli such as spoken language and music that are critical to our daily communication and separate us from other species. I use EEG, MEG, and fMRI, but also constructed neural network models, to understand how the brain constructs abstract structures over seconds to tens of seconds in natural stimuli and in real-world laboratories.
