Biography

My research activity aims to study by a multidisciplinary approach (psychophysics, oculomotricity, neuroimaging, neuropsychology, ophthalmology) the neurocognitive mechanisms of visual perception. At a theoretical level, it allows me to propose a neurocognitive model of scene recognition, which integrates a retinotopic and hemispheric processing of spatial frequencies. This research leads to clinical applications and perspectives of valorization in the field of diagnosis. For example, in ophthalmological diseases, such as AMD or glaucoma, we show that retinal damage is accompanied by functional brain changes inducing visual deficits in areas of the visual field considered as intact by perimetry of the visual field.
