System-level Computations Underlie Visual Field Heterogeneity in Human Vision

Experiment: Psychophysics + Modeling

Collaborators: Shutian Xue, Antoine Barbot, PhD, Marisa Carrasco, PhD

📍This project aim to uncover how system-level computational mechanisms contribute to differences in visual performance across the visual field, beyond what can be explained by anatomical factors like retinal and cortical structure.

Time course of Covert Exogenous Attention Around Visual Field

Experiment: Psychophysics

Collaborators: Nina M. Hanning, PhD, Marisa Carrasco, PhD

📍This project investigated the temporal dynamics of exogenous attention on visual sensitivity and tried to answer whether inhibition of return is also in visual perception.
