Education
PhD Vision Science, University of California Berkeley, 1997
Professional Experience
Research Associate, The Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute 1997-2000
Research Interests
The development of visual function and the visual system in human infants. Neonates see poorly and undergo significant visual development over the first months after birth. Two particular goals are to understand the limits imposed on neonatal performance by specific structural immaturities in visual processing and the role of activity-dependent neural development in visual maturation.
