Bio
Jonghwa Park studied music composition in undergraduate school, and explored human auditory perception from an artistic perspective. Later, in graduate school, he majored in electrical engineering, where he investigated the cognitive mechanisms of auditory perception through rigorous scientific methodologies.
He is particularly interested in the physical characteristics and cognitive processes of various sounds, including speech and music, and primarily utilizes systems modeling at both behavioral and neural levels, as well as computational neuroscience methods.
More broadly, he is deeply involved in scientific discourse on topics such as the reproducibility crisis and Bayesian modeling, as well as the impact of basic scientific research on industry, markets, and science and technology policies across different countries. He also conducts research on higher-level cognitive functions and their pathological manifestations, such as sleep, psychological disorders, hearing loss, and dizziness.
