Kristine Krug investigates the neural basis of visual perception and decision-making. She is a University Research Fellow and member of the European Platform for Mind Sciences, Life Sciences & Humanities. Her work focuses on how brain activity influences perception and behavior, particularly the contribution of V5/MT neurons to decisions regarding 3D perception. Kristine employs various methods to examine the influence of contextual factors, such as reward and social advice, on sensory evidence processing. Her research aims to elucidate the neural circuitry underlying perceptual decisions using MRI and histological techniques, with a specific focus on understanding altered perception and decision-making in patients with psychological disorders. She has previously held the Dorothy Hodgkin Fellowship at the Royal Society from 2001 to 2005 and her research is supported by funding from the Wellcome Trust, Royal Society, BBSRC, and Volkswagen Foundation.
