Hello. I'm an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Yale University, and director of the Yale Perception and Cognition Laboratory. My lab members and I are interested in all aspects of perception, cognition, and how they relate to each other. Some of our current research projects focus on the nature of visual awareness and attention; the role of 'core knowledge' in infant cognition and adult perception; the perception of high-level properties such as animacy and causality; the representation of objects (and object persistence) in the mind; implicit visual statistical learning; subjective time dilation; efficient communication of visual information; and the foundations of cognitive science. For more information about this research, please visit the links listed above.

You may also want to visit our main lab webpage (with a list of lab members, a photo gallery, etc.), and note that RA positions are available for Yale undergraduates.

For the 2009-2010 academic year, I am also serving as the Director of Undergraduate Studies for the Cognitive Science major.
