معرفی
Daryl Wilson is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Queen's University. His research focuses on attentional control processes, exploring how humans select relevant perceptual information and appropriate responses for task goals. He employs behavioral studies and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate limitations in attentional control, perceptual shaping by attention, and underlying cortical mechanisms.
Education:
- B.Sc., University of Waterloo, 1995
- M.A., Wilfrid Laurier University, 1997
- Ph.D., University of Toronto, 2003
Research Interests: Wilson examines attentional control's role in perception, memory, and action. Key topics include visual working memory accessibility, object-substitution masking effects on conscious perception, confirmation bias in visual search, and the neural correlates of attentional processes. His work bridges cognitive psychology and neuroscience, with applications in understanding clinical populations like schizophrenia patients.
Labs/Teams: His lab uses advanced methodologies like eye-tracking and fMRI to investigate real-time cognitive processes, including mind wandering and adaptive simulation techniques. Collaborative projects explore applications in medical education and behavioral task design.
Grants/Advising: While specific grant details aren't listed, his publications indicate sustained federal and institutional funding for cognitive neuroscience research. No formal advisee list is provided.
