Prof. Dr. Zhuanghua Shi

Prof. Dr. Zhuanghua Shi leads the Multisensory Perception Lab (msense.de) at the Chair of Neuro-Cognitive Psychology at LMU, specializing in research on attention, perception, and action. He has a keen interest in how we integrate multisensory senses and how context and probability influence learning, as well as perceptual biases. He employs various methods in his research, including psychophysics, EEG, fMRI, and computational modeling. Additionally, he is affiliated with the Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences (GSN/LMU) and Neuroimaging Core Unit Munich (NICUM).
