Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2023 Microsaccades are at the interface between basic oculomotor phenomena and complex processes of cognitive functioning, and they also have been a challenge for subtle experimentation and adequate statistical analysis.

A Causal Role for the Cortical Frontal Eye Fields in Microsaccade Deployment. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2016 Microsaccades aid vision by helping to strategically sample visual scenes. Despite the importance of these small eye movements, no cortical area has ever been implicated in their generation.

The effect of speed of processing training on microsaccade amplitude. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Older adults experience cognitive deficits that can lead to driving errors and a loss of mobility. Fortunately, some of these deficits can be ameliorated with targeted interventions which improve the speed and accuracy of simultaneous attention to a ...

Toward a model of microsaccade generation: The case of microsaccadic inhibition
Journal of Vision, 2008 Microsaccades are one component of the small eye movements that constitute fixation. Their implementation in the oculomotor system is unknown. To better understand the physiological and mechanistic processes underlying microsaccade generation, we studied microsaccadic inhibition, a transient drop of microsaccade rate, in response to irrelevant visual ...

Microsaccadic rate signatures correlate under monocular and binocular stimulation conditions
Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2020 Microsaccades are involuntary eye movements occurring naturally during fixation. In this study, microsaccades were investigated under monocularly and binocularly stimulated conditions with respect to their directional distribution and rate signature ...

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 Visual selection in primates is intricately linked to eye movements, which are generated by a network of cortical and subcortical neural circuits. When visual selection is performed covertly, without foveating eye movements toward the selected targets, a

Nature Communications, 2022 Covert visual spatial attention modulates neural activity and biases the direction of small eye movements, known as microsaccades. Here, the authors show that these two markers co-vary, but that microsaccades are not necessary for neural modulation by ...

Microsaccade Control Signals in the Cerebellum [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2015 Microsaccades, the small saccades made when we try to keep the eyes still, were once believed to be inconsequential for vision, but recent studies suggest that they can precisely relocate gaze to tiny visual targets. Because the cerebellum is necessary for motor precision, we investigated whether microsaccades may exploit this neural machinery in ...

Bayesian microsaccade detection
Journal of Vision, 2017 Microsaccades are high-velocity fixational eye movements, with special roles in perception and cognition. The default microsaccade detection method is to determine when the smoothed eye velocity exceeds a threshold. We have developed a new method, Bayesian microsaccade detection (BMD), which performs inference based on a simple statistical model of eye
