Point-light biological motion perception activates human premotor cortex [PDF]
Motion cues can be surprisingly powerful in defining objects and events. Specifically, a handful of point-lights attached to the joints of a human actor will evoke a vivid percept of action when the body is in motion.

Benefits of Endogenous Spatial Attention During Visual Double-Training in Cortically-Blinded Fields
Recovery of visual discrimination thresholds inside cortically-blinded (CB) fields is most commonly attained at a single, trained location at a time, with iterative progress deeper into the blind field as performance improves over several months. As such,

Why human connection is the true metric of research success
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...

Opponent processes in human motion perception: shear and compression sensitivity, induced motion and motion capture [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Sensitivity to differential motion components, shearing and compressive (opposed) motion, was examined. The hypothesis that the visual system contains local

Vestibular processing during natural self-motion: implications for perception and action
How the brain computes accurate estimates of our self-motion relative to the world and our orientation relative to gravity in order to ensure accurate perception and motor control is a fundamental neuroscientific question.

Pathways and pitfalls: a qualitative study of student experiences in biomedical science education
Biomedical science students from underrepresented backgrounds face barriers including financial strain, disrupted laboratory access and cultural exclusion. Peer networks provide vital support when institutional systems are difficult to navigate. To create inclusive learning environments and achieve academic success, educators should blend active, hands‐

Reclaiming the obsolete in transitional landscapes: perception, motion, engagement [PDF]
Transitional landscapes are spaces/interfaces between city and countryside commonly experienced on the move; although highly present in the commuting life of metropolitan areas, they are perceived as obsolete by the people who mostly use them – the ...

Suppression and facilitation of human neural responses
Efficient neural processing depends on regulating responses through suppression and facilitation of neural activity. Utilizing a well-known visual motion paradigm that evokes behavioral suppression and facilitation, and combining five different ...

Motion perception: a review of developmental changes and the role of early visual experience
Significant controversies have arisen over the developmental trajectory for the perception of global motion. Studies diverge on the age at which it becomes adult-like, with estimates ranging from as young as 3 years to as old as 16.
