This study shows that eye movements are essential for stereopsis, as suppressing their induced disparity changes impairs depth perception.

The paper shows that saccade amplitude filters visual information by spatial frequency, affecting post-saccadic visual sensitivity.

This study shows that residual retinal motion during pursuit eye movements helps compress visual information and influences perceptual judgments.

This study records single-cell electrophysiological responses in the rostral nucleus tractus solitarius (rNTS) of awake rats during food exploration and licking, showing distinct activity patterns during appetitive and consummatory phases of eating.

This study investigates how inhibitory neural circuits regulate locomotor statistics in Drosophila, identifying specific neurons that control search behavior and movement parameters.

The paper examines perceptual spaces across domains with varying semantic and low-level feature dominance, finding similar global geometry but distinct tree-like structures in semantic domains.

The paper applies topological data analysis to spiking patterns in macaque visual cortex, revealing a low-dimensional geometric structure similar to Euclidean or hyperbolic spaces.

This study demonstrates that humans use high-resolution extra-retinal knowledge of fixational eye motion to infer spatial relations, challenging the assumption that visual perception relies solely on retinal input.

This study enhances GABAergic tone in the rNTS of rats to show it reconfigures neural activity related to taste and licking behavior, improving discrimination of palatable vs. unpalatable tastants.

The paper tests the 'variance is salience' hypothesis by showing it accurately predicts visual sensitivity to second-order grayscale image statistics in texture-segregation tasks.

This study shows that eye movements transform visual scenes into spatiotemporal flows on the retina, reconciling contrast sensitivity functions with retinal ganglion cell responses.

This study identifies two elementary sensory-motor transformations in Drosophila olfactory navigation: an upwind run during odor and a search behavior at odor offset.

The paper compares global and local image statistics between brain MRI images and natural scenes, finding significant differences that may affect human visual processing and machine analysis of MRI.

This study shows that neuronal computations for motion detection in dragonflies and macaques similarly combine low- and high-order motion cues, suggesting a shared computational strategy.
