Biological motion distorts size perception [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractVisual illusions explore the limits of sensory processing and provide an ideal testbed to study perception. Size illusions – stimuli whose size is consistently misperceived – do not only result from sensory cues, but can also be induced by cognitive factors, such as social status.

Oxytocin modulates human chemosensory decoding of sex in a dose-dependent manner
eLife, 2021 There has been accumulating evidence of human social chemo-signaling, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Considering the evolutionarily conserved roles of oxytocin and vasopressin in reproductive and social behaviors, we examined ...

Optically gated beating-heart imaging [PDF]
, 2014 The constant motion of the beating heart presents an obstacle to clear optical imaging, especially 3D imaging, in small animals where direct optical imaging would otherwise be possible.

Perception of biological motion without local image motion [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 A vivid perception of the moving form of a human figure can be obtained from a few moving light points on the joints of the body. This is known as biological motion perception. It is commonly believed that the perception of biological motion rests on image motion signals.

Crowding of biological motion stimuli
Journal of Vision, 2013 It is difficult to identify a target in the peripheral visual field when it is flanked by distractors. In the present study, we investigated this "crowding" effect for biological motion stimuli. Three walking biological motion stimuli were presented horizontally in the periphery with various distances between them, and observers reported the walking ...

Brain Areas Active during Visual Perception of Biological Motion [PDF]
, 2002 Theories of vision posit that form and motion are represented by neural mechanisms segregated into functionally and anatomically distinct pathways. Using point-light animations of biological motion, we examine the extent to which form and motion pathways

Brownian Motion after Einstein: Some new applications and new experiments [PDF]
Controlled Nanoscale Motion, Nobel Symposium 131, Lecture Notes in
Physics, Vol. 711, p. 181-199 (2007), 2006 The first half of this chapter describes the development in mathematical models of Brownian motion after Einstein's seminal papers and current applications to optical tweezers. This instrument of choice among single-molecule biophysicists is also an instrument of precision that requires an understanding of Brownian motion beyond Einstein's.

Dilation and Constriction of Subjective Time Based on Observed Walking Speed
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 The physical properties of events are known to modulate perceived time. This study tested the effect of different quantitative (walking speed) and qualitative (walking-forward vs.
