I currently study top-down mechanisms of selective attention in the human brain, with a focus on interactions between remote brain regions. Methods include fMRI, the combination of on-line TMS and fMRI, and some elementary psychophysics and patient work.

Currently conducting behavioural studies with brain damaged patients presenting visuospatial neglect. Assessing the role of attentional factors in modulating neglect severity and testing a new rehabilitation method involving adaptation to prisms. Also conducting fMRI studies with extinction patients investigating the neural basis of  the attentional modulation of extinction.

Psychophysics and fMRI studies of visual context integration: investigating how our awareness of alternative interpretations of ambiguous visual stimuli depends on the present visual surroundings and also on non-visual behavioural goals or attentional states.
