Cooper Smout (He/Him)

Researcher, Institute for Globally Distributed Open Research and Education

My PhD focused on the neural mechanisms of attention and prediction in visual awareness, using computational modelling and multivariate analyses of human brain imaging data (EEG and MEG) to investigate how predictions bias attention and visual awareness. I’m also passionate about using the principles of Open Science to create a fair and efficient system of scholarly communication. To help achieve this, I founded Project Free Our Knowledge.
