Education and Early Career

Dr. Meyer received his Bachelors of Science from Florida Atlantic University in 2002, with an honors thesis under Steven Bressler. He then went on to receive his PhD in Neuroscience from Wake Forest Medical Center under the mentorship of Christos Constantinidis and Terry Stanford. There, his work focused on how the primate brain processing visual information for space and objects in different areas of the prefrontal cortex.

Career and Research

Dr. Meyer completed postdoctoral work at Carnegie Mellon University between 2008 and 2014 in the laboratory of Carl R Olson. There he worked in Biomedical Engineering where he discovered implicit statistical learning in Primate visual systems. Dr. Meyer joined the Visual Memory Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania where he is the Senior Research Lead in 2015.
