Profile
David Amadeus Vogelsang is a Lecturer in Brain & Cognition at the University of Amsterdam. He obtained his PhD at the University of Cambridge under the supervision of Prof. Jon Simons on the subject of neural mechanisms underlying memory encoding and retrieval. He then moved to California to work with Prof. Mark D’Esposito at University of California Berkeley as a post-doc where he conducted research on the neural and neuromodulatory mechanisms underlying cognitive control. From 2020-2023 he lectured at Leiden University. He joined the Brain & Cognition group in Amsterdam in August 2023. David is involved in teaching in various Bachelor and Master courses (see “Teaching” tab below). His research focuses on:
- Cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying learning & memory
- What makes an item memorable (memorability project)
- Neuromodulators and cognitive control
