Expertise

• Topics

My work focuses on various aspects of visual perception and memory. I am also fascinated by the neural and cognitive plasticity of perception and memory as well as the interplay between perception and motor functions.

• Research Methods

To address my research questions, I typically use human electrophysiology and psychophysics.
