Research Focus

  • Mechanisms and brain regions involved in selection, perception and memory of visuo-spatial information
  • Role of the prefrontal cortex, the hippocampus and their interactions for spatial short-term memory ("working memory")
  • Role of spatial working memory for human behavior
  • Mechanisms the brain uses to integrate the rapid series of snapshots acquired by fast eye movements ("saccades") to a seemingly immediate and stable representation of the entire visual scene.
