Teenie Matlock

I'm Founding Faculty at UC Merced, the 10th campus in the UC system. In 2004, I came to the campus to create a Cognitive Science Program. I'm also Affiliate Faculty in the Institute of Cognitive and Brain Sciences at UC Berkeley. My research is a mesh of cognitive linguistics, experimental psychology, and human-computer interaction. Many of my projects focus on the interaction of language with spatial imagery, visual processing, or physical movement. I completed my PhD in cognitive psychology at UC Santa Cruz after doing linguistics graduate work at UC San Diego, and I did post-doctoral research in the Psychology Department at Stanford University. At UC Merced, I teach Introduction to Cognitive Science and Introduction to Language and Linguistics, and co-coordinate Mind, Technology, and Society, a talk series sponsored by Cognitive Science and Computer Science & Engineering. I'm a member of the American Indian Council in Mariposa County, and my husband is Paul Maglio.
