University Professor; Silver Professor; Professor of Neural Science and Psychology. Developed the use of quantitative techniques from computational theory and visual psychophysics to understand how neurons in the visual cortex represent the form and motion of objects; how these representations develop in early life, and how neural representations support visually-guided action and perception. Led the way in linking fundamental correlate of visual perception with behavior.
