Research Interests

The Laboratory employs Cognitive Neuroscience techniques to investigate human visual perception

We investigate visual perception and attention at 3 levels of analysis:

  • How do visual attention and perception function?
  • How do perceptual functions map onto neural structures?
  • How do neural substrates perform the computations which support perceptual and cognitive function?
