Marsha received her PhD from Carnegie Mellon University. Except for a brief stint as a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, Marsha has spent her academic career predominantly in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - a great place to do cognitive science research. Her research interests center on learning during problem solving and, more specifically, on how people learn to make good choices when they are solving problems. Marsha's Curriculum Vitae is here.

Currently, Marsha is co-organizing the Sixth International Conference on Cognitive Modeling, to be held in Pittsburgh from July 29 to August 1, 2004. She is also co-organizing the 33rd Carnegie Symposium on Cognition, "Thinking with Data."
