John White
Prof. White’s laboratory uses engineering approaches to understand how information is processed in the brain, with the goal of exploiting these findings to improve the human condition. Ongoing and future research questions include the following: Why is coherent electrical activity of the cortex necessary for mental processes like learning and memory? What factors control this […]

Dr. Yazdanbakhsh’s research focuses on topics in human vision and its modeling, human electrophysiology, and psychophysics. Some specific projects include a new cortical model to approach the problem of figure-ground segregation and border-ownership, motion integration by multiscale sampling, and the spatio-temporal dynamics of neural receptive fields.
