Description of Research Expertise
RESEARCH INTERESTS- Photoreceptor physiology: mechanisms underlying the light responses of rod and cone photoreceptors
- Murine electroretinography: use as a non-invasive monitor of retinal function in normal and transgenic mice
- Polarization vision: biological mechanisms, behavioral psychophysics,and polarization-difference imaging
- Human visual evoked potentials: combined with psychophysics to investigate early cortical processes
