We have a new paper published in the Journal of Neurophysiology! The paper explores how the superior colliculus (SC) represents visual images as they are moved around on the retina by fixational microsaccades. Our previous work has shown that when stimuli suddenly appear around the time of microsaccades and saccades, then SC visual responses representing these[…]

We have a new very exciting paper at Nature Communications. The paper addresses a topic that we, like many others in the field of active vision, had been interested in for a long time, and it contains many exciting and unexpected discoveries in it. Indeed, it represents a real tour-de-force by graduate students Matthias Baumann and[…]

Our 2019 article on the foveal visual representation of the primate superior colliculus was ranked as the 3rd best publication of 2019 by the European Vision Institute! The ranking can be found here or here. In this work, we found unexpectedly large foveal magnification in a phylogenetically old brain structure in the brainstem. The work represented a significant departure from[…]
