| Abstract: | (CIT): You are invited to attend the next NIH Neuroscience Series lecture on May 19, 2008 at noon in the Lipsett Amphitheater of the NIH Clinical Center, 10 Center Drive, Bethesda, MD. John A. Assad, Ph.D., Professor, Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School, will present his seminar on "Neuronal encoding of behavioral relevance in parietal cortex". Dr. Assad's laboratory uses electrophysiological recording techniques in awake, behaving monkeys to explore mechanisms underlying visual perception. They focus on the question "How does what we know influence what we see?" Dr. Assad's research has demonstrated how a global understanding of the visual scene exerts a powerful influence over how we perceive its details. Dr. Assad's seminar will describe how the neuronal activity in the parietal cortex encodes visual perception. NIH Neuroscience Seminar Series. |
