Dr. Maddox is a postdoctoral fellow studying crossmodal auditory and visual attention with Dr. Adrian KC Lee. Prior to his arrival at I-LABS, he earned his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering at Boston University with Drs. Kamal Sen and Barbara Shinn-Cunningham. Dr. Maddox is interested in crossmodal object formation. He is partciularly interested in the mechanisms behind binding of acoustical and visual features, and how attention modulates this process.
