Labs

Hou Lab

The research in my lab focuses on the sensory processing in binocular vision and its disruption by amblyopia and strabismus. The current project is to use EEG source imaging combined with psychophysics and pupil tracking to investigate the role of selective visual attention in interocular suppression, as well as the spatial and temporal dynamics of visual processing in people with disrupted binocularity.

Lott Lab

Our lab is investigating the visual, motor and cognitive factors that contribute to reading ability in people with early to intermediate age-related macular degeneration.

MacKeben Lab

Work in this laboratory is devoted to researching facts and developing tools to help the rehabilitation of people with low vision, especially those with macular vision loss.

McKee Lab

The McKee laboratory is dedicated to psychophysical and other non-invasive measurements of normal and amblyopic vision. Our primary interests include normal and abnormal binocular vision, motion processing and contrast sensitivity.

Teng Lab

We aim to better understand how people perceive, interact with, and move through the world, especially when vision is unavailable. To this end, the lab studies perception and sensory processing in multiple sensory modalities, with particular interests in echolocation and braille reading in blind persons. We are also interested in mobility and navigation, including assistive technology using nonvisual cues. These are wide-ranging topics, which we approach using a combination of psychophysical, neurophysiological, engineering, and computational tools.
