He is currently Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia, where he has taught since 1992. Until about 2000, his research focused solely on the brain basis of learning and memory.

His writing on education has been (or is being) translated into Chinese, French, Korean, Thai, Portuguese, and Russian.
