I am a professor of psychology with interests in auditory, visual, and cross-modal perception, psychology of art, and philosophy of mind (perception lab's homepage). You may think of me as a neo-Gestalt psychologist who uses tools of cognitive science—experiments using human observers, mathematical analysis of patterns, and a mathematical modeling of data—to solve some of the enduring puzzles facing students of the mind and the brain. I teach in the cognitive area of the Psychology Department at the University of Virginia, which has an excellent group of researchers in perception (see Denny Proffitt's and Steve Boker's homepages). I am eager to attract bright and hard-working graduate and undergraduate students, from the US and abroad, to join the excellent group of people without whom my lab would not be the wonderful and excitingly interesting environment it is.
