Research

I study how the representations in the brain and the world work together in cognition.  Current projects include: 

• Event perception and understanding
• Mental imagery and spatial reasoning

I also have an interest in graphical perception and data visualization:

• Looking at graphs as visual objects

A complete reference list is available in my curriculum vitae.
