PLAsticiTY of Perceptual space Under Sensorimotor interactions (PLATYPUS)
Start date: Jul 1, 2017, End date: Jun 30, 2021,
Space is the foundational characteristic of visual perception and we generally perceive it as continuous and uniform. Behavioural measurements and the properties of our sensory systems however, demonstrate that this is an illusory situation and our percept is constructed by the brain. One example is our lack of awareness of the blind spot that exists in each eye. Space is non-uniformly represented ...

Myopia: Fundamental understanding needed (MyFUN)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,
The proposed ETN “Myopia: fundamental understanding needed” (MyFUN) provides an international, interdisciplinary platform to train young scientists at the interface of physics and biology, to study unresolved questions about the visual control of eye growth. It has been extensively documented that the growth of the eye is controlled by closed-loop visual feedback, using retinal image defocus as an ...
