Professor Martin Edwards is the coordinator of the IVE Lab project and head of the Psy-NAPS group His research aim is to use the laboratory to study perception and action behaviour. He is also interested in developing new technology enabling interactive virtual environments, and in doing so, making the laboratory more useful for behavioural research

Stéphane Grade is currently doing his PhD. His research investigates the involvement of motor and numerical processes in spatial cognition, supervised by Professors Martin Edwards and Mauro Pesenti. He is using the IVE lab to moderate the spatial aspects of virtual environments and measure the effects on action and numerical processes.

Mauro Pesenti

 Mauro Pesenti

 

Professor Mauro Pesenti is the head of the adult numerical cognition laboratory. His research aim within the IVE Lab is to investigate how adults behaviourally process magnitudes such as length, numerosity and distance, and what relationships exist between the different cognitions.
