Vilayanur Ramachandran, M.D., Ph.D., Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition and Professor, Psychology Department and Neurosciences Program, University of California, San Diego
V.S. “Rama” Ramachandran has
pursued research in two areas, one in the study of visual perception
(what a subject is seeing based on what they report), and the other in
behavioral neurology (in which his experiments, despite their seeming
simplicity, have had a significant impact on the way we think about the
brain). He is credited with introducing the use of visual feedback as a
treatment for phantom limb pain and complex regional pain syndrome and
for stroke rehabilitation. More recently, his work has focused on the
causes of autism.
