We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Determinants of Motion Perception @ Rutgers the St Univ of Nj New Brunswick
Induced motion and certain other illusions concerning the path of perceived motion are examples of that class of phenomena in which perception is determined by the relation of one stimulus object to another. The proposed research will investigate these phenomena as part of the long-range goal to explain perception in terms of an inference or problem-solving process. The guiding hypotheses are: (1) In induced motion the physically stationary object appears to move egocentrically because the surrounding moving object becomes the frame of reference and consequently is misperceived asegocentrically stationary or as moving less than it is. To eliminate conflict with this perceptual interpretation, the eyes (which are stationary in fixating the stationary object) are felt to be tracking a moving object. (2) In many illusions concerning the perceived path of an object moving in the vicinity of a moving frame of reference, the display is perceived to be hierarchically organized: the object moves relative to the frame and the frame moves relative to the observer. The object is seen as belonging to the moving frame of reference and as partaking of its motion. The two components of perceived motion of the object together fully account for its displacement in space. Thus the net perception of egocentric change is veridical, there is no conflict between different sources of information and, therefore, this kind of hierarchical effect is robust in comparison to induced movement. Experiments are proposed to test these hypotheses and to explore similarities and differences between the two kinds of motion illusion in order to increase our understanding of the perceptual processes that underlie normal vision. The problem is one of fundamental importance in psychology and in many areas in the field of mental health.

Object and Event Perception @ University of California Berkeley
This is a request for an ADAMHA RSA. The candidate proposes to join the Department of Psychology at the University of California at Berkeley and to devote full time to research. The broad objective is to facilitate and improve the candidate's research and enable his continued growth as an investigator by virtue of the elimination of all non-research responsibility, the betterment of the intellectual environment, and the opportunity to interact and collaborate with several outstanding scientists at Berkeley. Research on five separate though related topics is proposed all of which are extensions of themes that have developed during the candidate's career. These are: Attention and Level of Processing in Perceptual Organization; Perceptual Reversal; Imaging and Perception; Orientation and Form; Viewer vs. Object-Centered Perception. The specific aim of this research is to advance our understanding of these topics in particular and of visual perception in general. It is assumed that such advances of basic knowledge will have useful ramifications for the field of mental health.
