In the Vision Lab (co-directed by Dr. Simona Buetti and Dr. Alejandro Lleras), we are interested in understanding fundamental mechanisms in vision and attention. For example, we explore how people search for something in a visual environment, and what factors influence their perceptions of the visual world around them. We use behavioral measurements, eye-tracking and VR techniques in our research. Please visit our website to learn more about what we do: https://publish.illinois.edu/visionlab/ or contact jiaheht2@illinois.edu if you have any questions.
We are recruiting Research Assistants for the Fall 2023 semester. If you are interested in joining our lab, please send us your application!
Our lab is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in research and academic spaces. As a team, we actively strive to create an environment where each person feels valued and can bring their full self to lab.
