My research interests

How does the visual brain direct the eyes towards the most diagnostic feature on faces? Relevant facial features have different information values depending on emotional expression. For example, the eyes are more relevant to fear faces. While it is believed that the visual brain produces different streams of information for “where” and “what,” the relationship between human gaze behaviour and neuron responses is not well understood.

Another area of interest is how visual inputs influence our decisions (e.g., perceptual encoding and motor planning). I am currently investigating these questions through behavioural experiments and eye-tracking, as well as through the implementation of drift-diffusion models (DDM) to EEG and eye-tracking data.
