processing of face identity, emotions and gaze direction, their
development across the life span starting from early childhood and how
these functions break down in patients with focal lesions and in
developmental disorders including Autism Spectrum Disorders and Fetal
Alcohol Spectrum Disorders. The candidates will have the opportunity
to use fMRI, EEG, and eye tracking techniques, alone or in
