Research Interests
My research focuses on applied uses of virtual reality (e.g., medical training, consumer behavior, VR human-computer interaction, improving VR as a platform for research), as well as spatial cognition and navigation, e.g., creating 3D worlds for people to navigate, improving how people navigate, testing spatial memory and perception.
