Postdoctoral Scholar

Tzu-Yun Tung / t͡sɨ̌ ýn tǔŋ/ is a postdoctoral scholar supervised by Professor Alan Yu. She was trained as a computational neurolinguist, using both computational modeling and electrophysiological measurement to understand language processing and speech perception in real time. Her goal is to develop a research program that is theoretically motivated, experimentally rigorous, and socially relevant from a developmental or clinical perspective.

Tzu-Yun has studied how neural encodings of phonetic cues (e.g., tonal differences) affect speech perception, as well as how memory retrieval...
