neural dynamics of visual object and scene processing in the human brain. A
sample of topics currently investigated are i) how sensory representations are
converted into semantic representations, ii) how cognitive capacities such as
imagery or mental rotation are mediated by feed-forward and feedback
information, iii) the role of visual cortex in the blind, and iv) how the brain
harvests structural regularities in the visual world for recognition.<span></span></span></p>
