Alexander Goettker

Dr. Alexander Goettker is a postdoctoral researcher at Justus Liebig University Giessen's Department of Psychology and Sports Science, specializing in oculomotor behavior and sensorimotor integration. He contributes to the Collaborative Research Center "Cardinal Mechanisms of Perception" and the International Research Training Group "The Brain in Action".

• Ph.D. in Psychology (2020) with thesis on saccadic-pursuit eye movement interactions
• M.Sc. in Psychology (2016), including predoc program in visual neuroscience
• B.Sc. in Psychology (2014)

Key research areas:

• Saccadic and pursuit eye movement coordination
• Integration of retinal and extra-retinal signals
• Eye-hand movement interactions
• Naturalistic visual processing in sports contexts

Publication trends show focus on sensorimotor integration, visual processing during eye movements, and the interplay between perceptual judgments and motor control. His work spans journals like Current Biology, PNAS, and Scientific Reports.
