Researchers in perception in the School of Psychology have interests in a range of topics in vision including surface perception, space perception, face perception, stereopsis, motion, lightness, colour, transparency, depth, shape, and attention. The group has a large set of overlapping interests in a broad range of topics in vision, and employ a range of computational, behavioral, and neuro-imaging approaches in studying visual processes. The group is extremely successful in securing extramural funding, and has a strong publication record in the top journals in vision, psychology, and general science (including the cover of Nature).

Here is a list of the people within the School who are most involved in perception research. Follow the links for further information including publications.
