The central goal of our laboratory's research program is to isolate and characterize the neural and cognitive mechanisms of attention and working memory. Our research on attention emphasizes the idea that attention is not a single mechanism, but is instead a type of mechanism that operates within different neurocognitive subsystems under different conditions. Our research on working memory emphasizes the interaction between representations and processes in visual working memory and the function of this memory system in real-world visually guided behavior. In addition, our research addresses dysfunctions of attention and working memory in psychiatric and neurological disorders.
