Background
My research focuses on how changes to sensory input can alter perception and cognition in healthy participants and clinical populations. I am also interested in how the brain makes predictions, more specificially what eye-movments can tell us about how these predictions are generated. I use eye-tracking as well as neuroimaging (fMRI/MEG/EEG) methods to investigate these concepts.
I currently teach the Imaging the Mind and Brain MSc course in the School of Psychology.
