Research Interests

The Vision Sciences Laboratory studies all aspects of the human visual system. This extends from basic studies of the cornea, lens and retina to applied studies of visual processing within the brain. A primary focus of the laboratory has been the investigation of how lifestyle, primarily dietary, influences both the development of degenerative disease and the normal function of the central nervous system. For example, we use psychophysical methods to measure the concentration of the dietary carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin within the fovea (termed macular pigment or the macula lutea) and have related those pigments to various aspects of retinal and brain function.

The combination of expertise and our interdisciplinary approach has led to insights in a diversity of areas. For example, we have published data relative to the development of age-related eye disease and we are currently studying preventive approaches to dementia (including Alzheimers and Cognitive decline). We are also working on issues in Sports Vision and other aspects of visual performance. Another strong area in our laboratory is the maturation of the infant visual system and brain.

Research Interests

I study the development of visual attention in infants and young children. I am specifically interested in developmental changes in attention, the role of attentional processes in how infants learn about the world around them and how they interact with other people, and what individual differences in infant attention may tell us about social and cognitive development when the infant is older. In my lab, we study both behavioral (i.e., look duration and reaction time) and physiological (i.e., heart rate and respiration rate) measures of attention, using both global and microanalytic coding techniques.

My lab includes a stimulus presentation computer with a 31 inch monitor, 3 videocameras, a video-mixer for creating split-screen images, equipment for synchronizing each frame of videotape with a time code, two videotape coding computers, and a bioamplifier for measuring heart rate and respiration rate. Much of our work involves painstaking analysis of videotape records of testing sessions with babies previously recorded. You can learn more about research studies we are doing in our lab by clicking here to visit our lab web page.

Research Interests

Flexible instrumental behavior (problem-solving), perception, manipulation, and skill learning in primates. I consider the developmental bases of flexible behavior, and the contribution of social learning and social context to the expression of flexible behavior. I study primarily capuchin monkeys (Sapajus and Cebus; South American monkeys) and adopt ecological and embodied perspectives to study behavior. I collaborate with many colleagues studying wild tool-using capuchin monkeys in Brazil, and in laboratory studies of spatial cognition, perception and action.

Research Interests

My research is in the area of Psychopharmacology. My broad interests concern the neurobiological basis of motivation and emotion. More specifically, I am interested in the neurobiological mechanisms responsible for stress resilience and regulation of affective motivation. Much of this work has focused on brain noradrenergic systems and galanin, which is the major peptide coexisting with norepinephrine.

Previous research in my laboratory has focused on changes in neurotransmitter systems that occur in rodent models of depression. Other studies have examined the neurobiological basis for the comorbidity of depression and drug abuse. My current research program focuses on the neurobiological effects of exercise. This research employs rodent models to study the relationship between exercise-induced regulation of neurotransmitter function and behavior. I am particularly interested in long-term changes in gene expression in the brain caused by exercise. Recent work has focused on the neurochemical basis for the antidepressant effects of exercise. These studies demonstrate that physical activity alters brain levels of neurotransmitters and/or neurotrophic factors that may ameliorate symptoms of depression. Other studies conducted in this laboratory have shown that exercise may enhance learning and memory through a similar mechanism. More recently, we have discovered that exercise exerts neuroprotective effects, and we are currently examining the role of the neurotransmitter galanin in these effects. These findings suggest that the capacity for exercise to prevent the neural degeneration associated with aging, Alzheimer's disease, stroke, or trauma may be mediated by discrete neural systems. We are currently studying the effects of exercise on the prevention of stress-induced relapse in rodent models of addiction.
