When we catch a moving object in mid-flight, our eyes and hands are directed toward the
object. Yet, the functional role of eye movements in guiding interceptive hand movements is …

Glutamatergic pathways in thalamus and cortex are divided into two distinct classes: driver,

The ability of animals to respond to life-threatening stimuli is essential for survival. Although
vision provides one of the major sensory inputs for detecting threats across animal species …

The existence of a central fovea, the small retinal region with high analytical performance, is
arguably the most prominent design feature of the primate visual system. This centralization …

Due to the close relationship between oculomotor behavior and visual processing, eye
movements have been studied in many different areas of research over the last few …

The brain makes use of noisy sensory inputs to produce eye, head, or arm motion. In most
instances, the brain combines this sensory information with predictions about future events …
