Welcome to the website of Davide Zoccolan’s Visual Neuroscience Lab.

The lab is part of the Neurobiology and Cognitive Neuroscience Sectors of the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) of Trieste (Italy), and was established in 2009 thanks to the support of an Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei -   Compagnia di San Paolo Grant.

Our research aims at understanding the neuronal mechanisms underlying visual object recognition, using a combination of psychophysics, electrophysiology, and computational modeling.
