Laboratory of Psychophysics

In the Laboratory of Psychophysics, we investigate visual information
processing in human observers with psychophysical methods, TMS, EEG,
and mathematical modelling.

Main topics of research are: feature integration, contextual modulation,
time course of information processing, and perceptual learning. In clinical
studies, deficits of visual information processing are investigated in
schizophrenic patients.
