Probing and modulating inter-areal coupling in the cortical visual motion processing pathway with non-invasive brain stimulation
In the last few years, stroke ranked as the second most common cause of death and is the third most significant condition affecting disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) worldwide. Being the most prevalent and quality of life impacting post-stroke symptom ...
EPFL2024Neuroprotection in the Retina: From Preventing Inflammatory Cell Death to Promoting Vascular Stability in the Central Nervous System
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide. Glaucoma is defined clinically as the presence of optic nerve head (ONH) degeneration and progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Intra-ocular pressure (IOP) has been con ...
EPFL2024Weak correlations between visual abilities in healthy older adults, despite long-term performance stability
Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio
Using batteries of visual tests, most studies have found that there are only weak correlations between the performance levels of the tests. Factor analysis has confirmed these results. This means that a participant excelling in one test may rank low in ano ...
2024A new self-adjustable glaucoma valve
Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Stéphane Bigler, Julien Maxime Gerber, Soroush Rafiei
Introduction: Glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, affects more than 70 million people across the world. When initial treatments prove ineffective, especially for cases with high intraocular pressure (IOP), the preferred approach ...
Frontiers Media Sa2024Alpha peak frequency affects visual performance beyond temporal resolution
Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey, Maya Roinishvili
Recent work suggests that the individual alpha peak frequency (IAPF) reflects the temporal resolution of visual processing: individuals with higher IAPF can segregate stimuli at shorter intervals compared to those with lower IAPF. However, this evidence ma ...
2024Course Design - A Visual and Modular Approach
This book has been designed for instructors in higher education or adult training who wish to develop a new course or revise an existing one. It adopts a practical, visual, and modular approach based on the principle of constructive alignment. At its heart ...
EPFL Press2024Decoding electroencephalographic responses to visual stimuli compatible with electrical stimulation
Silvestro Micera, Simone Romeni, Laura Toni, Fiorenzo Artoni
Electrical stimulation of the visual nervous system could improve the quality of life of patients affected by acquired blindness by restoring some visual sensations, but requires careful optimization of stimulation parameters to produce useful perceptions. ...
Aip Publishing2024Serial Dependence in Human Visual Perception and Decision-Making
Decisions about a current visual stimulus are systematically biased by recently encountered stimuli, a phenomenon known as serial dependence. In human vision, for instance, we tend to report the features of current images as more similar â i.e., an attra ...
