Logan Walls

Logan earned his bachelor’s degree in Informatics at the University of Washington, and worked as a data scientist for three years before joining the Psychology department at Michigan. He is interested in how recent advances in AI can help use understand human thought, and how empirical findings about human and animal cognition can inspire new ideas in AI. Logan’s journey into graduate school and research would not have been possible without the generous support he received from mentors during his undergraduate program, and he hopes that MAPS can help foster similar experiences for undergraduates at Michigan.
