Research: Vision, Touch, and Body

Our interaction and perceptions of other people are influenced by our own as well as others' physical postures, gestures, and expressions.  How does the brain combine information from vision, touch, and the body?

• Embodied perception, attention, and cognition in typical, aging, and patient populations.
• Multimodal representations of the human body.
• Face and body contributions to emotion perception and communication.
• Neural bases of tactile and visual object recognition, spatial processing, and attention.
• Human movement, motor imagery, and expertise.
