Visual Plasticity and Translational Neuroscience Lab

Research in this lab focuses on visual perception and neural plasticity in both healthy and clinical populations, in particular individuals with central vision loss due to macular degeneration. Key research directions include developing effective perceptual learning paradigms to maximize training benefits, investigating compensatory mechanisms following sensory impairment, and promoting accessibility to visual assessments through cross-platform applications. His work employs a range of methodologies such as psychophysics, non-invasive brain stimulation, eye tracking, and simulated scotoma paradigms to study adaptation to central vision loss and to evaluate rehabilitative interventions.
