Research

My name is Christoph Daube: I am a newly apponited lecturer here in the School of Psychology & Neuroscience. I am interested in the auditory processing of speech as well as the visual processing of faces. What happens to the soundwaves once they have hit our eardrums, or the light once it has excited the rods and cones of our retina? How do we arrive at an abstract understanding of the stimuli presented to us? And what can neuronal or behavioural responses tell us about these latent processes? I try to gain insights into these questions through the perspectives offered by deep neural networks, magnetoencephalography and information theory.
