Sheng He (born 1964, China) is a professor of psychology in the Department of Psychology, University of Minnesota.[1]

He is broadly interested in the neural basis of human vision,[2][3] visual attention, and visual awareness.[4] His most influential works include the demonstration of adaptation to invisible visual patterns (such as gratings), and the depth of invisible processing during binocular suppression.
