Research

Doris Chow is an experimental psychologist broadly interested in how our brain enables us to perceive our multisensory and dynamic environment coherently. Combining various techniques (psychophysics, eye-tracking, electroencephalography), she conducts experiments on human participants to understand what, when, and how audio-visual inputs are integrated. She sometimes takes these experiments to a community setting, for example, at a science museum or a community festival, to collect data from a broader population to understand how this integration ability changes across the life span. At STU, her current research explores whether and how the eyes serve as a window to multisensory integration in healthy and developing populations.
