The questions that motivate our research all revolve around visual cognition and mostly around eye movements and visual memory. Specifically, we are interested in
-
What leads different individuals and clinical populations scan the same scenes differently
-
How individuals' specific scanning characteristics influence their opinion, attitudes and decision
-
How eye movements relates to individuals' specific memories
-
How memory related scanning patterns can be used for revealing concealed information
-
How do we maintain visual information that is no longer present?
-
What are the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying forgetting in healthy people and patients with brain disorders?
-
-
We are engaged in investigating these topics using various research methods including neuroimaging and behavioral experiments, in healthy individuals and patients with neurological disorders.
