New paper in @pnas led by @vickey17singh! We present an innovative head-mounted eye-tracking system to study vision in freely-moving NHPs. Results counter key assumptions in the field and opens the door to study the NHP visual brain in the real-world. https://t.co/VHkHVeEEDv

When we enter a new environment, we use visual input to rapidly build an internal model of the local spatial environment. How does our brain do this? We review past literature and suggest some new ways forward in our new review in @CurrentBiology:

Excited to share our review on natural visual behavior and active sensing by @SkybergRolf at Current Opinion in Neurobiology. There are a lot of important visual computations that get engaged once an animal is actively interacting with the environment! https://t.co/ViYXnP0EWi

We love natural behavior! Our new review highlights recent work from @cris_niell, @bbo_lab & others. Is natural behavioral all we need to understand brains? We say no & hypothesize why training critters can be hard. Pls post your training thoughts below.

In a new study led by Emily Hsiang and @NingShenStella , we uncover parallel pathways for spatial and temporal information of naturalistic stimuli, respectively, in the early visual system. https://t.co/b8EfexrNUq
