9. Fully Funded PhD in Investigating peripheral vision usage in sports and driving
Summary of Funded PhD Program
You will be part of our young team working on the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) Starting Grant project entitled “Mechanisms of peripheral vision in complex decision making” (TMSGI1_211220 / 1). In the first phase, we focus on mechanisms behind the use of peripheral vision in experimentally controlled settings in our Virtual Reality laboratory. In the second phase, we investigate if these mechanisms can be trained to enhance decision-making processes in football and transferred to other domains like car driving.
