RESEARCH INTERESTs

I am a vision scientist currently residing in Sydney Australia studying a variety of problems in vision. The main focus of my research is on 'mid-level' vision, particularly issues of perceptual organization, segmentation, grouping, and the recovery of surface attributes (such as their color, material composition, shape, etc.).

My research aligns with the Faculty of Science Research Strengths - Brain, Behaviour and Cognition, Preventing and Treating Disease & Disorder.
