Our research utilizes multimodal imaging (fMRI, dMRI, qMRI), computational modeling, and behavioral measurements to investigate human visual cortex. We seek to understand how underlying neural mechanisms and their anatomical implementation enable rapid and efficient visual perception and cognition. Critically, we examine how the brain and visual perception change across development to understand how the interplay between anatomical constraints and viewing experience shapes the visual cortex and, ultimately, behavior.
Participate in one of our studies!
Baby Brains Study
We are recruiting 4 to 6-month-old infants to investigate how the brain develops its visual functions during infancy.
Kids Study
Our lab is actively recruiting children between the ages of 4 and 6 to participate in our study on how children's vision and brain structure change as they begin school.
Stereoblindness Study
We are studying visual perception in adults with visual conditions that affect depth perception.
