Research Interests


I study visual perception and visual working memory, focusing on how objects and ensembles are represented and stored. My research integrates behavioral experiments, computational approaches, and advanced data analysis to investigate: Visual working memory structure, Ensemble perception and summary statistics, Visual search and object recognition, Serial dependence and prior-history effects, Real-world object representation.
