Our lab conducts research on human
cognition in adults and children. At the
present time, we are focused primarily on two rather different
projects.
Learning & Memory.
We are investigating the
fundamental processes by which humans learn and remember
information. What factors influence the ease with which we
acquire and retain new knowledge, and how can their effects be
explained?
Visual Perception.
We are studying the ways in which
cognitive and sensory processes contribute to visual awareness.
How do knowledge and high-level cognitive control processes interact
with basic sensory mechanisms to produce our rich conscious
experience of the visual world?
