Olivier Marie Claire Collignon PhD

Dr. Olivier Collignon, an FNRS research associate, and professor of cognitive neuroscience at UCLouvain have focused on sensory loss and its consequences for the brain. As head of a research group called the Crossmodal Perception and Plasticity Lab (CPP Lab), he began his research by asking whether the blind develop capacities that exceed those of the sighted to compensate for their lack of vision. Quite recently, the researcher and his team set out on another challenge, studying the brain's perception of moving objects.
