Physics of Cognition

Established in April 2015, the group "Physics of Cognition" addresses topics in visual perception, visual attention as well as the coupling of perception to action and decision-making. In our research, we emphasise the use of realistic stimuli and scenarios. In addition, we use multistable phenomena (e.g., rivalry) as model system for perceptual and cognitive processes. Methods include eye-tracking, pupillometry as well as theoretical and computational modelling. More details can be found in our publications.
