Biography

Fulvio Domini is a vision scientist specializing in how the human visual system extracts 3D information from retinal images. Since joining Brown University in 1999, he has focused on understanding the perceptual processes that underlie our ability to interpret visual information about the surrounding environment. His research delves into mathematical analyses of retinal images, challenging long-held assumptions about the modular organization of visual processing. Over two decades, Domini has made significant contributions to the field through journal publications and empirical studies, which argue against the notion that the visual system operates via independent modules. He investigates how motion information and other visual cues are processed integrally rather than in isolation. His work has been funded by multiple grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF), supporting inquiries into 3D shape perception and depth cues. Domini's teaching encompasses a range of courses related to perception, computation in vision, and the intersections of vision and cognitive science.
