Dyslexia | Dyslexia | We are testing the magnocellular hypothesis of dyslexia, which suggests that the root cause of dyslexia may be caused by malfunctions of the magnocellular system in the brain. We are measuring the structure and function of the lateral geniculate nucleus in people with dyslexia and controls. | Schneider, Keith | kschneider | | <img alt="" src="/Images%20Bios/dyslexia%20a.png" style="BORDER:0px solid;" /> | | | | | |
Attention and appearance | Attention and appearance | As part of a longstanding debate in the literature, we are studying whether paying attention to an object actually changes its subjective appearance, or whether it just changes our response criterial and decision biases. | Schneider, Keith | kschneider | | <img alt="" src="/content-sub-site/PublishingImages/attention%20and%20appearance%20A.png" style="BORDER:0px solid;" /> | | | | | |
Temporal perception | Temporal perception | Using visual psychophysics, we are studying the temporal resolution and variability in normal subjects, with the aim of understanding temporal perception and illusion such as the flash-lag and Fröhlich effects. | Schneider, Keith | kschneider | | <img alt="" src="/Images%20Bios/graphs.png" style="BORDER:0px solid;" /> | | | | | |
Visual attention | Visual attention | We are measuring attentional control and modulation in the thalamic reticular nucleus and lateral geniculate nucleus. | Schneider, Keith | kschneider | | <img alt="" src="/Images%20Bios/thalamic%20reticular%20nucleus.png" style="BORDER:0px solid;" /> | | | | | |
Characterizing the responses of the human visual subcortex | Characterizing the responses of the human visual subcortex | Using population field mapping, independent components analysis and model-free clustering, we are measuring the fundamental temporal, spatial and feature-based response properties of the lateral geniculate nucleus, including its magno- and parvocellular subdivisions, and other subcortical nuclei and cortical areas. | Schneider, Keith | kschneider | | <img alt="" src="/Images%20Bios/Human%20subcortex.png" style="BORDER:0px solid;" /> | | | | | |
