The LAP Lab believes that understanding science of learning can bring a huge impact on education. Our research aims to generate insights into learning and translate them into real-world educational practice.

We study the difference between experts and novices, the trajectory of turning novices to experts, and investigate methods for enhancing learning efficiency. By preparing and enhancing our perceptual systems, students with various learning needs can benefit much more from their educational experience.

Our research techniques include behavioral measurement, EEG, fMRI and eye-tracking.
