Research summary
AI-generated

Aina Puce studies how the human brain processes visual information, with a particular focus on how we perceive faces, motion, and emotion. This work uses brain-recording methods such as EEG (electroencephalography, which measures electrical activity from the scalp) and MEG (magnetoencephalography, which measures the brain's magnetic fields), and also addresses how to make neuroscience research more reproducible and its data-analysis tools more accessible.

Publication activity has been uneven year to year, with notable peaks in 2017 and 2023 (the latter reflecting a set of textbook-style chapters on EEG and MEG) and steadier output averaging around eight papers per year over the last five years.
