Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarc Himmelberg is a research scientist at New York University with a decade of experience probing how cortical anatomy and neural encoding give rise to visual perception. He combines fMRI, psychophysics, and computational modeling to map how the brain transforms visual signals into internal representations of visual space, work rooted in a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuroimaging and postdoctoral research under Jonathan Winawer and Marisa Carrasco. His trajectory includes a Marie Curie fellowship and international visiting scholar roles, reflecting a strong track record in collaborative, cross-lab neuroimaging projects. Based in New York, he brings both deep experimental rigor and computational fluency to questions at the intersection of anatomy and perception, with a subtle emphasis on translating population-level cortical measures into perceptual predictions.
