Stephen Emrich is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at Brock University, where he specializes in Visual Cognitive Neuroscience. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto. His research focuses on visual working memory, attention, and conscious perception, particularly the brain processes underlying the conscious experience of visual information. Emrich examines the capacity limitations of visual short-term memory and how it interacts with attentional processes during everyday tasks, such as visual search. His work employs a range of methodologies including behavioral experiments, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and electrophysiological techniques like EEG and event-related potentials (ERPs) to answer key questions about how the visual system supports conscious perception.
