Dr Christoph Witzel

Associate Professor

Research interests

My main technical expertise is colour psychophysics and behavioural experiments.The main focus of my work has been the role of language and experience in colour perception.More broadly, I am interested in how culture and experience shape automatic assumptions to form our subjective reality.See also "About", and for recent developments and PhD opportunities, see Lab Website.
