Research Interests
My past research focused on investigating visual perception of biologically relevant motions and objects. Current projects investigate depth and 3D shape processing in the human visual system using a combination of psychophysical and fMRI techniques. In particular, I am interested in testing perceptual learning of depth perception and the plasticity of the underlying neural mechanisms.
