Research
I want to understand the structure of visual experience, and how it comes about. Research topics include the visual field, color and contrast perception, edge and blur perception, and the interaction of spatial vision with low-level image content. I also do work on theoretical perspectives regarding how conscious visual experience emerges from visual cortex. Various neuroscience experiences include collection and/or analysis of visual fMRI, EEG, ECoG, and monkey LFPs.
