Massachusetts Institute of Technology 2008-2011, Postdoctoral Associate, with Dr. Nancy Kanwisher Dartmouth College 2003-2008, Ph.D. Cognitive Neuroscience, with Dr. Peter Tse I am interested in understanding how the human brain is able to perceive and experience the world. More specifically, I focus on the problem of consciousness/attention, object/surface perception, and visual form-motion integration. I have been using fMRI, DTI, and psychophysics to tackle these problems via the study of various bistable illusions. My future goal is to keep investigating the cognitive and neural bases of object/surface perception, attention, and visual awareness with whatever techniques are necessary.
