Perceptual Science Talk Series
This research seminar features weekly talks and discussions spanning all aspects of perceptual science, with particular emphasis on topics that connect human perceptual science to computer modeling. Talks are by faculty and students at Rutgers as well as outside invited speakers, including prominent national and international scientists.
The seminar is organized by graduate students in perceptual science. It serves as a forum for presentation and discussion of timely issues in perceptual science, and as a vehicle for introducing students to new research and theoretical developments in the field.
The series is open to all members of the Rutgers community and is attended by faculty and students from a wide range of disciplines. It is held Mondays at 12:00, room 101, Psychology Building, Busch Campus. If you would like to be on the mailing list or if you are interested in presenting, please email cfarber@rci.rutgers.edu
