Haiyin joined the lab in 2001, after completing a BS from Princeton University. Her research at our lab moved our work in two new directions: oculomotor control, and human neurophysiology. She was the first student in the lab to do both human psychophysics and single cell neurophysiology. She completed her PhD on 2006 with the thesis Cerebellar and Cerebellar-Thalamic Contributions to Motor Adaptation.  She is now a research scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The results of her thesis were published in the following papers: Cerebellar contributions to adaptive control of saccades in humans. M Xu-Wilson, H Chen-Harris, DS Zee, and R Shadmehr (2009) Journal of Neuroscience 29:12930-12939.
