Pro-life, pro-guns, pro-...environment?: Attitudes, perceptions, and biases of "green" conservatives
Neuropathology Night: Presentations on Neuropathology Cases
Our pre-med undergraduates have prepared presentations on neuropathology cases. The actual specimens will be available for viewing.
The discussions will be guided by Dr. Stewart Comer, a neuropathologist from Cottage Hospital.
Functional Vision in Macular Degeneration
Individuals with macular degeneration typically lose vision in the central region of one or both eyes. This talk will describe the functional consequences of the pattern of overlap of regions of vision loss in the two eyes. Overlapping regions result in central field loss that impact acuity and eye movements, whereas non-overlapping regions impact stereopsis, despite intact visual fields.
[CPCN Seminar]
Recent progress in brain reconstruction has shown that visual and semantic information can be decoded from fMRI into high-level representation spaces. In this talk, we outline a broader research direction centered on representation alignment as a unifying principle for brain modeling. First, we discuss ongoing efforts to construct a shared, aligned brain representation space that maps multiple subjects into a common geometry.
