Aaron Seitz-Brain, Behavior and Cognition Program Faculty

Ph.D., Boston University

Research Assistant Professor

My research strives to understand the neural mechanisms that allow for, stabilize, and consolidate, sensory learning. In this research, I employ an interdisciplinary approach to research that combines methods of psychophysics, neuroimaging (fMRI and MEG) and computational neuroscience. I also study a variety of aspects of sensation including motion processing, hyperacuity, stabilization of visual images, crossmodal auditory-visual processing, and phonological processing.
