Kurzinfo
My current research focuses on attention and eye movements during natural-scene processing and when performing realistic tasks in the real-world and in virtual reality. In addition, I use multistability (e.g., ambiguous figures, binocular rivalry) to study common processes underlying perception, action and decision-making. Together, these lines of research aim at understanding how the human brain deals with complex and ambiguous sensory input to extract information that is relevant for achieving behavioural goals.
