Understanding brains in the real world.

Our perspective

Brains evolved for the real world.

Animals move through complex environments, rapidly sample their surroundings, communicate with others, and make decisions using information that is constantly changing. We study the neural mechanisms that make these natural behaviors possible.

01 · COMMUNICATION

How does the brain identify, track and interact with other individuals?

02 · SOCIAL SPACE

How does the brain represent where we—and others—are in space?

03 · ACTIVE VISION

How does the brain construct a stable world from constantly changing visual information?
