Research
In the Rosenberg lab, I study how the visual system forms 3D representations of the world from the 2D images projected onto the retina, and how these 3D representations contribute to motor behavior. By employing novel behavioral and electrophysiological techniques, I seek to identify the cortical and subcortical mechanisms that support gaze shifting and vergence control.
