Current research focuses on understanding hallucinations at a quantitative, mathematical level, including cellular mechanisms and signal-to-noise ratio.

“I think my focus is is to turn over some rocks that might not have been turned over yet and just to get really down at a quantitative rigorous mathematical level of what is a hallucination for example um when I asked this question what is a hallucination I'm interested in the actual cellular mechanisms are we just you know we think about neurons having signal to noise and neurom modulation as changing that are we just changing the signal to noise ratio and then pattern completing all the noise and that's what a Hallucination is we just you know take that's we're just reinterpreting noise and and putting sort of existing Maps everything's fitting to existing mold or map that we've already got”
