Dr Fries' work in the field of cognitive neurosciences is widely recognised and answers major scientific questions of how perception is organised, how it is influenced by attention, and what are the neural mechanisms that instantiate these functions. Latest scientific results focus on the description and explanation of the neuronal substrate instantiating perception, action and memory.
