Research Interests
I am interested in the contributions of electrical signals in the human brain to visual perception. For my thesis work, I worked with non-human primates as well as with patients with medically intractable epilepsy implanted with semi-chronic subdural surface electrodes for clinical purposes. We used electrical stimulation to examine the role of different visual areas in supporting visual percepts.
