Prof. Merav Ahissar
Department of Psychology.
She is involved in investigating the theory and application of perceptual plasticity. In particular, she focuses on the role of attention in various forms of plasticity including learning (skill acquisition), priming, sequence learning and adaptation. Constraints which impair perception and perceptual plasticity impact on cognitive abilities, including reading disabilities (dyslexia) and memory.
