Visual space constructed by saccade motor maps
How visual space is represented in the brain is an open question in neuroscience. Embodiment theories propose that spatial perception is structured by neural motor maps.

Horizontal saccade bias results from combination of saliency anisotropies and egocentric biases [PDF]
Saccadic eye movements shift the fovea between objects of interest to build a visual percept. In humans, saccades are predominantly executed along the cardinal axes, particularly in the horizontal direction. It is unknown how this horizontal saccade bias

Aging increases compensatory saccade amplitude in the video head impulse test
Objective: Rotational vestibular function declines with age resulting in saccades as a compensatory mechanism to improve impaired gaze stability. Small reductions in rotational vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain that would be considered clinically ...

Effort drives saccade selection
What determines where to move the eyes? We recently showed that pupil size, a well-established marker of effort, also reflects the effort associated with making a saccade (‘saccade costs’).

Investigating Arousal, Saccade Preparation, and Global Luminance Effects on Microsaccade Behavior
Microsaccades, small saccadic eye movements occurring during fixation, have been suggested to be modulated by various sensory, cognitive, and affective processes relating to arousal.

The Concurrent Programming of Saccades. [PDF]
Sequences of saccades have been shown to be prepared concurrently however it remains unclear exactly what aspects of those saccades are programmed in parallel. To examine this participants were asked to make one or two target-driven saccades: a reflexive

Is mislocalization during saccades related to the position of the saccade target within the image or to the gaze position at the end of the saccade? [PDF]
A stimulus that is flashed around the time of a saccade tends to be mislocalized in the direction of the saccade target. Our question is whether the mislocalization is related to the position of the saccade target within the image or to the gaze position

Modulation of saccade trajectories during sequential saccades
We show that in saccade sequences, saccade trajectory is modulated in the direction of the preceding saccade and away from the following saccade. The magnitude of this effect is correlated with preceding and following saccade amplitude. This confirms that programming of sequential saccades overlaps.

Pre-saccadic perception: Separate time courses for enhancement and spatial pooling at the saccade target. [PDF]
We interact with complex scenes using eye movements to select targets of interest. Studies have shown that the future target of a saccadic eye movement is processed differently by the visual system.

Spatiotemporal Content of Saccade Transients.
Humans use rapid gaze shifts, known as saccades, to explore visual scenes. These movements yield abrupt luminance changes on the retina, which elicit robust neural discharges at fixation onsets.
