Funded Activity Summary
Understanding the neural dynamics of colour constancy and feature binding. A key open question in visual neuroscience is how sensory input is combined with higher-level influences (e.g. attentional state). This project aims to address this using neuroimaging techniques combined with sophisticated analysis methods that were recently developed to measure when stimulus-related information is being transferred between different brain regions. These methods will be used to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying two fundamental phenomena in visual perception: feature binding and colour constancy. Understanding the neural mechanisms by which sensory input interacts with attention for these tasks would be a major advance in understanding how interactions between brain regions give rise to our perceptual experiences.Funded Activity Details
