Following the fundamental recognition of its involvement in sensory-motor coordination and
learning, the cerebellum is now also believed to take part in the processing of cognition and …

The mammalian superior colliculus (SC) and its nonmammalian homolog, the optic tectum,
constitute a major node in processing sensory information, incorporating cognitive factors …

Significant advances in cognitive neuroscience can be achieved by combining techniques
used to measure behavior and brain activity with neural modeling. Here we apply this …

Experimental evidence indicates that the superior colliculus (SC) is important but neither
necessary nor sufficient to produce accurate saccadic eye movements. Furthermore both …

Saccades are rapid eye movements that redirect the fovea from one object to another. A
great deal has been learned about the anatomy and physiology of saccades, making them …

▪ Abstract In general the cerebellum is crucial for the control but not the initiation of
movement. Voluntary eye movements are particularly useful for investigating the specific …

There has been considerable focus placed on how individuals with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD) visually perceive and attend to social information, such as facial expressions …

Cognitive neuroscience is motivated by the precept that a discoverable correspondence
exists between mental states and brain states. This precept seems to be supported by …

The characteristics of microsaccades, or small fixational saccades, and their influence on
visual function have been studied extensively. However, the detailed mechanisms for …

During visual tracking of a moving stimulus, primates orient their visual axis by combining
two very different types of eye movements, smooth pursuit and saccades. The purpose of …
