Current Biology, 2017 Perceptual learning refers to how experience can change the way we perceive sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch. Examples abound: music training improves our ability to discern tones; experience with food and wines can refine our pallet (and unfortunately more quickly empty our wallet), and with years of training radiologists learn to save lives ...

Calcium imaging with genetically encoded indicators in behaving primates
eLife, 2016 Understanding the neural basis of behaviour requires studying brain activity in behaving subjects using complementary techniques that measure neural responses at multiple spatial scales, and developing computational tools for understanding the mapping ...

Perceptual Learning of Noise-Vocoded Speech Under Divided Attention
Trends in Hearing, 2023 Speech perception performance for degraded speech can improve with practice or exposure. Such perceptual learning is thought to be reliant on attention and theoretical accounts like the predictive coding framework suggest a key role for attention in ...

Sustained neural activity correlates with rapid perceptual learning of auditory patterns
NeuroImage, 2021 Repeating structures forming regular patterns are common in sounds. Learning such patterns may enable accurate perceptual organization. In five experiments, we investigated the behavioral and neural signatures of rapid perceptual learning of regular ...

Eye Movements During Everyday Behavior Predict Personality Traits
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018 Besides allowing us to perceive our surroundings, eye movements are also a window into our mind and a rich source of information on who we are, how we feel, and what we do.

Perceptual learning in speech [PDF]
Cognitive Psychology, 2003 This study demonstrates that listeners use lexical knowledge in perceptual learning of speech sounds. Dutch listeners first made lexical decisions on Dutch words and nonwords. The final fricative of 20 critical words had been replaced by an ambiguous sound, between [f] and [s].

Functional Access to Neuron Subclasses in Rodent and Primate Forebrain
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Viral vectors enable foreign proteins to be expressed in brains of non-genetic species, including non-human primates. However, viruses targeting specific neuron classes have proved elusive.

Category and perceptual learning in subjects with treated Wilson's disease.
PLoS ONE, 2010 To explore the relationship between category and perceptual learning, we examined both category and perceptual learning in patients with treated Wilson's disease (WD), whose basal ganglia, known to be important in category learning, were damaged by the ...

Dual mechanisms governing reward-driven perceptual learning [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
F1000Research, 2015 In this review, we explore how reward signals shape perceptual learning in animals and humans. Perceptual learning is the well-established phenomenon by which extensive practice elicits selective improvement in one’s perceptual discrimination of basic ...
