Welcome to the Person and Space Perception Lab at the University of East Anglia
We study how people remember and interact with the surrounding environment: the space we move around and the people we see. Our research on spatial navigation investigates how people perceive, represent, and navigate in space, whereas our studies about face processing address how people recognize and interact with other people.
Our two lines of research share the same goal: Revealing how social and spatial information is encoded in mind and brain and how we use the social and spatial information to guide our everyday interaction with the world, such as recognizing persons or navigating between places.

We always welcome new students to join us. If you are interested in gaining some research experience with face processing or human navigation or if you would like to discuss potential Masters or PhD project along these directions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
