I am a third year undergraduate student at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur majoring in Computer Science and Chemical Engineering. I am interested in the mechanisms that help people learn how to make good decisions, and the role of cognitive limitations in these mechanisms. My work here is on reverse engineering the mechanisms of metacognitive learning, specifically how people learn how to plan (and when to stop planning).
