The scientist's main topics of work include:

  • Visual perception and processing mechanisms
  • Neural and Behavioral Psychology Studies
  • Neural dynamics and brain function
  • Visual Attention and Saliency Detection
  • Retinal Development and Disorders

Bundesen has frequently published in various journals. Key publication venues are:

  • Psychological Review
  • Royal Society Open Science
  • Journal of Experimental Psychology Human Perception & Performance
  • Neuroscience Letters
  • Psyke & Logos

Recent papers authored or co-authored include:

  • "A Poisson random walk model of response times." (2020), Psychological Review
  • "Distinguishing between parallel and serial processing in visual attention from neurobiological data" (2020), Royal Society Open Science
  • "Comparing exponential race and signal detection models of encoding stimuli into visual short-term memory." (2020), Journal of Experimental Psychology Human Perception & Performance
  • "Gabor patterns as stimuli in a rodent visual attention task" (2020), Neuroscience Letters
