Funded Activity Summary

Processing and Awareness in Dynamic Vision. How is phenomenal consciousness related to processing in the brain? Is visual awareness a direct on-line monitor of visual processing, or do further interpretative processes intervene so that simultaneous neural activity can represent events experienced at different times? A novel technique for measuring asynchronies in the processing of different visual attributes will be used to examine the relationship between the dynamics of our subjective visual awareness and the time course of the underlying neural processes. The results will help to establish which neural computations are (and are not) accessible to conscious vision, thus serving to shape current theories of consciousness.
