معرفی
Sean MacEvoy is Senior Lecturer in Psychology and Neuroscience at Boston College, specializing in human visual neuroscience using fMRI and psychophysics. His research examines neural mechanisms of form perception, object recognition, and functional organization of visual cortex.
Education includes:
- Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Brown University
- Sc.B. in Neuroscience from Brown University
Research focuses on:
- Neuronal tuning for object form and position
- Scene construction from object representations
- Population coding in visual cortex
- Natural vision processing
His publications demonstrate integration of neurophysiological and behavioral approaches to visual processing, with recent work examining hippocampal representation of spatial relationships.
Honors include:
- Howard Hughes Medical Institute Predoctoral Fellowship
- National Eye Institute Travel Fellowship
He has mentored multiple graduate and undergraduate researchers in sensory psychology projects and serves on thesis committees. Current projects investigate functional connectivity between object- and space-processing brain regions during scene viewing.
He directs laboratory research on visual processing and collaborates with Massachusetts General Hospital's Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging.
