Researchers study human #attention using #microsaccades & N2pc #EEG marker, but does one cause the other? This study shows that microsaccades affect N2pc amplitude, but don't directly cause this attentional neural signature @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4mB1Wwl

Our paper, "Stimulus representations in visual cortex shaped by spatial attention and microsaccades" was just published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Stimulus representations in visual cortex shaped by spatial attention and microsaccades https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.02.25.529300v1 by @skarthik et al. via @DrYohanJohn; are retinal implants still too crude to benefit from #microsaccades? #neuroscience

New preprint paper from the Desimone gang! Hopefully, the first of a few from us this year.

Work done with @elowet, Bruno Gomes, and of course the boss!

New preprint out! With @psy_michel and @cognikobusch we show that alpha oscillations do not track the full course of exogenous attention.
