Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolElizabeth Zavitz is a Senior Lecturer and lab head in visual neuroscience at Monash University with eight years post-PhD experience building an interdisciplinary research program on how the brain constructs sensory representations and perception. Trained in psychology (PhD, McGill) with a background in computing and cognitive science, she blends quantitative image-coding approaches with human and animal neuroscience methods. Over a decade at Monash progressing from postdoctoral fellow to senior lecturer, she leads research that bridges theoretical models and empirical data to reveal how visual information is encoded. Colleagues describe her work as combining rigorous experimental design with computational insight, and she often applies image-coding tools to probe perceptual mechanisms not obvious from behavior alone.
