This project explores how the brain distinguishes objects from backgrounds in visual perception. By studying feedback connections in the visual cortex of mice, it aims to understand the neural mechanisms underlying figure-background modulation.
Imposing structure and interpretation on the multitude of sensory input we collect constantly through our senses is a primordial aspect of brain functioning.
When scanning our surroundings we automatically segregate the visual scene into objects versus background.
Although seemingly happening without any effort, the underlying computations performed by the brain are massive.
Perceiving ambiguous figures exemplifies this complexity clearly.
In case of the famous Rubin Face-Vase illusion we can pe…
