We aim to understand the neural and visual mechanisms that underlie social perception in autism

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by differences in social communication and interaction. We seek to understand how different neural and behavioral mechanisms contribute to the wide diversity of behavioral features commonly seen in autism. Ultimately, our research aims to drive translational and therapeutic applications to improve the lives of autistic individuals.

Types of data we collect

Brain Waves

We record brain activity using electroencephalography, which is also known as EEG. EEG is a technology that is non-invasive and safe for children and adults.

Eye Movements

We record eye movements with high-speed eye-trackers, which are sometimes worn on the head. They are safe, comfortable, and look super cool on kids!

Computer Activities

We have participants complete computer-based activties while we record brain waves and eye movements.
