Vladislav Ayzenberg

Vlad is a developmental cognitive neuroscientist who is interested in understanding the mechanisms that support early developing perceptual abilities in human infants. Because measuring the underlying processes of the infant brain is incredibly challenging, Vlad uses biologically plausible computational models to explore what kinds of processes and developmental constraints may be sufficient to support infant perception. As a postdoctoral fellow with Dr. Michael Arcaro, he is starting to explore how early developing anatomical structures in the neonate visual system may scaffold perceptual abilities later in life.
