Chen et al. use 7-Tesla fMRI to show that the human superior colliculus has modality-specific, depth-dependent activity prior to visual or somatosensory events, resembling its response to actual stimu...

Comparing brain responses across species is essential for identifying models of human cognition and testing theories of brain evolution, but differences in brain size, measurement techniques, and sign...

Numerosity adaptation suppresses monotonic neural responses to numerosity displays in the early visual cortex, with more suppression for higher numerosity adaptors. Therefore, numerosity adaptation ef...

Rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities has drawn fresh attention to the prospect of consciousness in AI. There is an urgent need …

We investigated whether binocularly conflicting stimuli adapted from primate binocular rivalry studies could induce binocular response suppression in mouse visual cortex. We presented binocularly conf...

Sensory Horizons and the Functions of Conscious Vision

This satellite meeting showcases the latest research on metacognition, in the form of both keynotes and short oral presentations. About this meeting The Metacognitive Science Meeting grew out of an ...

here i respond to a commentary written by Alex Gomez-Marin and Anil Seth, on a paper explaining why IIT is unscientific . the latter articl...

I am one of the co-signers of the letter labeling IIT as “pseudoscience” for numerous reasons. These include a definition of…

Analog machine learning computations are performed passively by propagating light and sound waves through programmed materials.

For decades, hypothesis-driven research has been the cornerstone of inquiry — from health and neuroscience to political science, economics…

Psilocybin alters perception and brain dynamics. Contextual computations are ubiquitous in the brain. Here, we investigate the effects of psilocybin using psychophysics, ultra-high field functional MR...

We introduce Blink, a new benchmark for multimodal language models (LLMs) that focuses on core visual perception abilities not found in other evaluations. Most of the Blink tasks can be solved by huma...

O’Shea et al. investigates how the transition between cone- and rod-mediated vision affects neural representations in central visual areas of the mouse. Whereas the thalamus inherits luminance-depende...

Human adults exhibit visual performance asymmetries as a function of polar angle. Tünçok et al. investigate whether macaque monkeys show asymmetries and how they differ from humans. Both species exhib...

Decision confidence is a prototypical metacognitive representation that is thought to approximate the probability that a decision is correct. The perception of being correct has also been associate...
