Research Interests

We are interested in understanding how visual single and population neurons (LFP) reflect visual perception. We pursue this general goal by studying the response properties, neural functions, and mapping organizations of neurons through the visual cortical areas as well as the cortical layers in both awake and anaesthetized primates. We are also interested in understanding the neural circuits of spatial visual attention in area V1 of primates.
