ORGAN SYSTEM/DISEASE FOCUS
Our research investigates the neuro-computational basis of 3D vision, multisensory integration, and autism.
RESEARCH DESCRIPTION
The Rosenberg lab explores the following questions and problems:
- 3D Vision: How do we perceive the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the world when our eyes only sense 2D projections like a movie on a screen?
- Multisensory Integration: Our visual system first encodes the environment in egocentric coordinates defined by our eyes. Such representations are inherently unstable in that they shift and rotate as we move our eyes or head. How then do we perceive the world as stable?
- Neuro-computational underpinnings of autism: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) manifests heterogeneously across individuals. We study the neural basis of this heterogeneity using multifaceted approaches including learning studies with adolescents, neural imaging, and computational modeling.
