Perception depends not only on the current sensory input but also on the preceding history of stimuli. In serial dependence (SD), for example, the orientation of a Gabor patch is mistakenly reported as more similar to previous trials than it actually is. T ...
Our perception of the world is first shaped by the thalamus, a structure composed of many nuclei in the center of our brains. Different nuclei hold different responsibilities - vision (dorsal lateral genicular nucleus; dLGN), audition (medial geniculate nu ...
The choice of an action upon perception of an external stimulus, arriving at a sensory organ of an animal, depends on previous experiences and outcomes throughout its life. In the rodent brain, the underlying mechanisms involved in simple sensorimotor tran ...
Among our five senses, we rely mostly on audition and vision to perceive an environment. Our ears are able to detect stimuli from all directions, especially from obstructed and far-away objects. Even in smoke, harsh weather conditions, or at night â situ ...
The circadian clock regulates diurnal variations in autonomic thermoregulatory processes such as core body temperature in humans. Thus, we might expect that similar daily fluctuations also characterize human thermal perception, the ultimate role of which i ...
Recent research has highlighted the crucial role of the processing of somatosensory signals involving the torso for global aspects of Bodily Self Consciousness (BSC), i.e., the experience of the conscious "I" as embodied and localized within bodily space. ...
In serial dependence (SD), features of a present stimulus are judged as similar to previously presented ones. This bias is often explained by a continuity field (CF) in perception, combining similar stimuli in an extended region of space (∼ 15°) and time ( ...
Our exposure to light has a key role in regulating our biological clock through a dedicated photoreceptor present in the human eye. Increased awareness to its criticality when it comes to human well-being is urgently needed, as this criticality is potentia ...
There is a hot debate about the nature of serial dependence (SD), the tendency to judge stimulus features in a given trial as similar to the previous trial. It is often argued that SD reflects a mechanism to stabilize perception, combining features of simi ...
The array of whiskers on the snout provides rodents with tactile sensory information relating to the size, shape and texture of objects in their immediate environment. Rodents can use their whiskers to detect stimuli, distinguish textures, locate objects a ...
