Large-scale neuronal interactions during natural vision (B02 (ehem. 07))

• Subject Area: Cognitive, Systems and Behavioural Neurobiology
• Term: since 2017
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 276693517

This project investigates large-scale neuronal interactions during natural vision. Natural visual stimuli contain spatiotemporal regularities that are shaped by the physical laws of our world. In the upcoming funding period, we will use dynamic visual stimuli, to test the hy-pothesis that, during natural vision, the brain exploits these regularities and continuously conveys predictions of visual inputs through neuronal feedback projections.
