Overview

Joshua is an experimental psychologist specialising in visual psychophysics who joined City University in 2000. He previously worked at University College London, NASA/Ames Research Centre, Syracuse University, and New York University.

Joshua studied psychology at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. The title of his PhD (from New York University) was '2nd-order processes in the human perception of motion and texture.' After working at Syracuse University, NASA/Ames Research Centre, and University College London, he moved to City, where his job titles gradually progressed from Research Fellow to Professor. His main area of work is visual psychophysics.
