Dr. Robert G. Alexander is a faculty researcher at the New York Institute of Technology and director of the Human Factors and Neuroscience (HFAN) Lab, an NIH-funded, interdisciplinary research group focused on visual cognition and oculomotor behavior. His research examines fixational eye movements, visual attention, perceptual expertise, and the ways in which fine-scale eye movement dynamics affect visual perception and cognition. Working at the intersection of cognitive neuroscience, psychology, human factors, medical image perception, and vision science, he is particularly interested in developing rigorous, translational approaches that connect laboratory measures of visual behavior with clinically meaningful questions. Dr. Alexander also leads equity-centered research training initiatives designed to prepare undergraduate and interdisciplinary trainees for collaborative work in vision science and biomedical research. His broader interests include eye movement methodology, visual performance, scientific training, and the development of sustainable research partnerships across clinical and basic science settings.
