Multiregional Neuronal Computations Underlying Rapid and Flexible Visual Categorical Decisions

Summary and Relevance of Proposed Research Humans have a remarkable capacity to learn to recognize and make decisions about incoming visual stimuli. This ability, which is disrupted by brain-based diseases and conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, stroke, and attention deficit disorder, is critical because it allows us to learn about the meaning of the stimuli that we encounter, and it enables us to make appropriate decisions. The neuronal computations which underlie rapid and flexible visually-based decisions involve interactions among neuronal populations both within and between brain regions spanning visual, cognitive, and motor areas. To understand how coordinated…
