Paolo Papale et al. find that the representation of borders of objects in natural scenes are special in the visual brain. Borders elicit extra activity in area V1. There is an early effect reflecting receptive field tuning and a later, contextual effect. https://t.co/heBm5xZR3H

The visual system needs to identify perceptually relevant borders to segment complex natural scenes. The primary visual cortex (V1) is thought to e...

Proud of our work and my PhD baby. Now out in Science: Pronouns reactivate conceptual representations in human hippocampal neurons. Thanks to @Pieters_Tweet, @MatthewWSelf and the others for this great study!

During discourse comprehension, every new word adds to an evolving representation of meaning that accumulates over consecutive sentences and constrains the next words. To minimize repetition and...

Happy to announce the publication of our Nature Communications article on how border-ownership tuning determines the connectivity of feedback projections in visual cortex with @d_jeurissen_ and @Pieters_Tweet :
nature.com
Nature Communications - The logic of feedback connectivity in the visual system is largely unknown. Here the authors show that border-ownership tuned cells in V4 have stronger feedback connectivity...

Ik verwacht een pakketje uit de VS via USPS. Het zit nu al twee weken vast op Schiphol (Your item departed a transfer airport in AMSTERDAM-SCHIPHOL, AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS on July 6, 2018 at 11:04 am.), de USPS code is CJ550449970US. Is er al en '3S' nummer bekend?
