Biography

Anja Pahor has a Ph.D. in Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Maribor in Slovenia and completed her post doc at the University of California, Riverside. She is a member of the UC Irvine Working Memory and Plasticity (WMP) Lab and the UC Riverside Brain Game Center for Mental Fitness and Well-being. 

Her research interests involve understanding the mechanisms underlying higher-level cognitive functions, particularly memory and reasoning. She is currently working on two multi-site research projects involving assessment and training of executive functions in children and adults.
