Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher to carry out

prior knowledge and assumptions are combined with visual stimuli to 
recover 3D shape. We will also investigate how vision is combined with 
haptic (touch) cues.

The successful candidate will work in collaboration with Dr. Wendy 
Adams.  The research will be based primarily in the School of 
Psychology, where the cognitive group includes several researchers 
interested in visual perception and cognition.
