My current research revolves around the study of individual differences in brain architecture and perceptual function. I am also interested in the question what kind of information processing in the brain depends on whether this information reaches conscious awareness. In the longer term, I hope to make a contribution to our understanding of qualia and what in the brain makes us who we are. My work mainly employs functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and behavioural, psychophysical measurements. However, I have also been known to use magnetoencephalography (MEG) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and other neurophysiological techniques. The methods are merely the tools; what matters most are the biological questions motivating our research. Therefore the choice of methodology is driven first and foremost by whatever technique is best suited to address the particular question we are addressing at the time.
