I am interested in eye and hand movement control during naturalistic tasks that require quick sensorimotor predictions and decisions. During many goal-directed actions we continuously predict whether, when, and where to interact with visual objects in our environment. In my research I study eye movements as a continuous readout of ongoing sensorimotor and cognitive processes. I am interested in understanding the underlying mechanisms of the interplay between eye and hand movements at different stages of sensorimotor decisions and how the two systems work in synergy during everyday tasks. To study these processes I use state-of-the art eye and hand movement tracking.
