Upcoming Seminars
Title: Splitting attention into its atomic components Host: Raj Rao Abstract: Every day, our senses face an information overload. How does our brain select what information is relevant for behavior and what is not? This is the central question driving our research: to understand the neural basis of the cognitive capacity that we intuitively understand…
