Lisa Korenman is an Assistant Professor at the United States Military Academy at West Point. Dr. Korenman received her PhD in Behavioral Neuroscience in 2004 from The American University, in Washington, DC. The focus of her graduate work was individual differences in learning styles and memory for auditorally and visually presented information. While completing her graduate work, Dr. Korenman worked as a research coordinator in the Department of Behavioral Health at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, managing over 45 projects investigating the use of telecommunications technology as a means for delivering healthcare to underserved populations. Specifically, Dr. Korenman was interested in the use of such technology for devising cognitive assessments and the efficacy of therapeutic interventions via computer and Video Telecommunications devices.
Dr. Korenman has worked at USMA since 2007, teaching courses in Introductory Psychology and Applied Research Methods. Since joining the Academy, the emphasis of her work has been on the cognitive components of military instruction and training and how technology can aid in military instruction.
