My name is Ali Hashemi. I'm a psychology professor. I got my PhD researching how the visual system becomes an expert in identification of faces and novel patterns. I measured both behaviour and brain (EEG) data. I am a teaching-stream Assistant Professor at Wilfrid Laurier University's Department of Psychology where I teach undergraduate courses to the inaugural cohort at the new Milton campus. I also tend to supervise undergraduate students on research questions that intersect both of our interests.
