Paradigms of visual adaptation have a long
ranging history in perceptual psychology.
The large collection of data on adaptation-induced visual aftereffects
has instigated and influenced many prevailing theories in the visual
neurosciences. However, comparatively
little neurophysiological data is available in the context of visual
adaptation. With respect to these
considerations, my research focused on two major efforts: (1) examining the
underlying brain activity during visual adaptation and related visual
aftereffects on the level of individual neurons; and (2) refining
psychophysical paradigms of adaptation. Feel free to contact me for more information.
