Research

The overarching theme of my research is on the development of models, algorithms and analysis tools to describe the neural mechanisms that humans use to perceive the external world, make decisions and produce behaviours. Experience, background and current research include spatiotemporal characterization of the neural correlates of active sensing and perceptual decision making, modelling of motor coordination at the muscle activation level, neural population coding of natural scenes using ganglion cells and representation of the information manifolds of hierarchical visual categorization.

My long-term research objective is to harness the power of neural, biomedical and psychometric data to reverse engineer the information processing mechanisms that implement sensory, cognitive and motor functions.
