Monetary reward speeds up voluntary conditional saccades

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2014
Past studies have shown that reward contingency is critical for sensorimotor learning, and reward expectation speeds up saccades in animals. Whether monetary reward speeds up saccades in human remains unknown.

Saccadic undershoot is not inevitable: Saccades can be accurate

open access: yesVision Research, 1986
Saccades normally take the eye 90% of the way to a target, followed by a 10% corrective saccade. An exception to this rule occurs with the range effect. When targets appear in a set of positions, saccades overshoot the near positions and undershoot the far. This phenomenon, previously reported, was confirmed with more accurate methods. The range effect

Sensing Pico‐Newton Plasmonic Forces and Jerks of LSPR Biochips Using Simple UV‐Visible Spectroscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The figure represents the interaction of light interaction with a nanostructured plasmonic system. Incident light excites localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and induces radiation forces on the nanostructures, as illustrated by the force vectors.

Prescribing competence: The pros and cons of different methods for assessment

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Evaluating a medical graduate’s competence in rational prescribing is challenging. With the aim to guide and inspire teachers, this narrative review explores different methods that can be used to assess prescribing competence. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and thus a mix of different assessment methods is needed throughout the ...

What and Where Information in the Caudate Tail Guides Saccades to Visual Objects

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2012
We understand the world by making saccadic eye movements to various objects. However, it is unclear how a saccade can be aimed at a particular object, because two kinds of visual information, what the object is and where it is, are processed separately ...

Voluntary Spatial Attention has Different Effects on Voluntary and Reflexive Saccades

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2003
Although numerous studies have investigated the relationship between saccadic eye movements and spatial attention, one fundamental issue remains controversial.

Joint Learning of Binocularly Driven Saccades and Vergence by Active Efficient Coding

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2017
This paper investigates two types of eye movements: vergence and saccades. Vergence eye movements are responsible for bringing the images of the two eyes into correspondence, whereas saccades drive gaze to interesting regions in the scene.

Itinerant curriculum theory: People's theory against the field's epistemicidal ethos

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The field of curriculum studies suffers from a glaring theoretical impasse. Much of this impasse has been rightly attributed to the triumphalism of the neoliberal wave that has massacred the educational hemisphere with policies and practices that reduce pedagogy to an instrumentalist praxis directly associated with the thirsty desires and ...

Optimal Control of Saccades by Spatial-Temporal Activity Patterns in the Monkey Superior Colliculus

open access: yesPLoS Comput. Biol., 2012
A major challenge in computational neurobiology is to understand how populations of noisy, broadly-tuned neurons produce accurate goal-directed actions such as saccades. Saccades are high-velocity eye movements that have stereotyped, nonlinear kinematics;

Mechanisms, Causes, and Solutions: A Comprehensive Review of Lipid Oxidation in Low‐Moisture Packaged Snacks

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This comprehensive and focused review describes how lipid oxidation plays a crucial role in determining the sensory quality and hence shelf life of low‐moisture packaged snacks: a category of food product that is not often discussed in literature, but is commonly found in our diets.
