The goal of my project is to study and model the neuronal mechanisms underlying the process of filling-in.

I am particularly interested in how the visual cortex extracts and interpolates the visual features that surround the scotoma. I expect to create models and paradigms that can be applied in behavioral and neuroimaging studies in order to unravel the foundations of filling-in.
