Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolCory Shain is an assistant professor in Stanford’s Department of Linguistics and leader of the Laboratory for Computation & Language in Minds & Brains (CLiMB), combining computational modeling with experimental neuroscience to study how language is represented in minds, brains, and machines. With a decade of research experience and a PhD from The Ohio State University, he brings deep quantitative expertise in behavioral and neuroimaging methods, experiment design, and data preprocessing. Prior postdoctoral work at MIT focused on computational models of language learning and processing, grounding his lab’s work in reproducible, theory-driven approaches. He teaches and mentors across graduate and undergraduate levels, drawing on earlier roles advising and designing curricula to communicate complex ideas clearly. Based in Palo Alto, he bridges cognitive science and machine learning, often translating neuroscientific insights into computational models that inform both theory and practical NLP systems. An attention to rigorous experimental design and neuroimaging preprocessing distinguishes his research from purely computational labs.
