The Visual Cognition and Computational Neuroscience Lab

Every time we glance at the world, we instantly know who and what we’re seeing, how things relate to one another, and what’s going on — all in a fraction of a second.

Our lab asks: How does the human brain do this, and why does it work the way it does?

We combine tools from machine learning with human behavioral and neural data to understand how visual cognition emerges in the human mind and brain.
