Timothy Brady, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of
California, San Diego, is the winner of the 2020 Elsevier/VSS Young
Investigator Award.  

 

Prof Brady earned his undergraduate degree in Cognitive Science at Yale
University. Under the direction of Aude Oliva, he completed his PhD and then
did post-doctoral research with George Alvarez at Harvard University.

 

Prof Brady uses a combination of behavioral methods, cognitive neuroscience
techniques and computational modelling to probe representations in the
visual system and the processes by which visual information is encoded in
working memory and integrated into long-term storage. He has made numerous
surprising discoveries about the extreme fidelity and detail of visual
long-term memories for objects and scenes, and has demonstrated how
statistical learning and ensemble encoding of features facilitates the
maintenance and storage of complex stimuli like natural scenes. 

 

Prof Brady’s work has helped broaden the study of working memory to include
richer, more naturalistic stimuli, and repeatedly challenged long-standing
assumptions about the nature of visual representations. In a series of
highly-cited studies he has shown how remembered objects are stored as
groups of distinct parts that can be independently forgotten, and that when
multiple items must be remembered, the brain computes summary statistics
across the group. Prof Brady is not only a gifted and productive
experimentalist—he has also made substantial contributions to the
theoretical understanding of visual memory representations through
computational modelling, as well as providing numerous useful tools for the
community.

 

Prof Brady will speak at the VSS Awards session at the 2021 meeting.
