Aravind Battaje, Oliver Brock, and Martin have just published a short and sweet paper in I-Perception titled “An interactive motion perception tool for kindergarteners (and vision scientists)”. Abstract: We implement Adelson and Bergen's spatiotemporal energy model with extension to three-dimensional (x-y-t) in an interactive tool. It helps gain an easy understanding of early (first-order) visual motion perception. … Continue reading New publication: An interactive motion perception tool for kindergarteners (and vision scientists)

Press coverage on Science Advances paper
Our recent paper in Intra-saccadic motion streaks jump-start gaze correction (2021, Science Advances), revealing a possible functional role of intra-saccadic motion streaks received some peer commentary and media coverage. Here's a summary of that: Perspective in Science Advances: Fabius, J. H. & van der Stigchel, S. (2021). Vision while the eyes move: Getting the full … Continue reading Press coverage on Science Advances paper
Our event at Brain Awareness Week
Together with Science of Intelligence, we are participating in the Brain Awareness Week! Brain Awareness Week is a global campaign to spark public interest in brain research. In that context, we want to share some of our enthusiasm about (arguably) the human brain’s most important sense: vision. If you have ever wondered how we perceive … Continue reading Our event at Brain Awareness Week
We joined the new PsychToolbox community
The lab has relied on PsychToolbox from the start and we have often reached out to the main developer, Mario Kleiner, for additional functionality and received exceptional support. PsychToolbox is certainly one of the most valuable services to the vision science community. After years of discussions and uncertainty of how it could be made sustainable, … Continue reading We joined the new PsychToolbox community
Book review on “How attention works”

Clara moderates panel discussion on Animal Research
Clara Kuper, student assistant in our lab, will moderate a panel and audience discussion on animal research and its ethical implications on April 24, 2017. The discussion will feature a number of first-class experts on animal research and welfare, including: Prof. Dr. Stefan Treue, Director of the German Primate Research Centre, Göttingen Prof. Dr. Christa Thöne-Reineke, Professor for … Continue reading Clara moderates panel discussion on Animal Research
Our research highlighted on psychonomic.org
We were happy to see that Steve Lewandowsky highlighted Betty's recent paper on feature-based attention and visual short-term memory at psychonomic.org! Here is a link to the blog.
Workshop on Learning at the Interface of Vision and Oculomotor Control
On September 20-21, 2016, we will host a workshop on Learning at the interface of vision and oculomotor control. It will be a satellite event of the Bernstein Conference.
In press: Spotlight on Remapping attention pointers
Because the eyes move, the correspondence between each location in the world and each location on the retina is arbitrary. From one fixation to the next, each object changes places on the retina. Both psychophysical and neurophysiological studies aim to better understand how we keep track of locations as the eyes move about. Yet the links between neural and behavioral findings remain obscure. Inspired by … Continue reading In press: Spotlight on Remapping attention pointers
