Duane Albrecht received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, in Biological Psychology. He specializes in teaching areas of biological, perceptual, and visual perception psychology. His research in the Visual Neuroscience laboratory follows established traditions in sensory physiology and psychophysics, with the ultimate goal of understanding sensation and perception. He investigates the visual system in monkeys, cats, and humans, seeking to understand how neurophysiology of the visual system relates to visual perception. His work involves performing single neuron electrophysiological experiments, measuring the electrical activity of individual neurons located in the visual cortex of monkeys and cats while systematically varying visual stimuli. The measurements are quantitatively evaluated within the context of specific theoretical formal mathematical and computational models.
