Alex Storer

I am a lowly graduate student PhD Candidate in Cognitive & Neural Systems at Boston University, working in the laboratory of Eric Schwartz. I graduated from UC Berkeley, where I studied Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Cognitive Science, with an emphasis in Neuroscience. I also make music in my increasingly meager spare time, and you can listen to it here.

I think that sensory substitution is really amazing and useful, so in a caffeinated haze I wrote a paper about it (Fall, 2005). I went so far as to do a little experiment about it (Spring, 2006).

I'm trying (tried, is more appropriate) to keep a weblog to describe my multitudinous research dilemmas, I call it the Neurologue, but the to the left is a brief summary of my research interests.

Presently, I'm working on computational anatomy and topographic modeling of the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus, and all of the problems that come with it.
