The Visuomotor Neuroscience Lab - Parietal Eye Fields

Parietal Eye Fields

Using fMRI, we showed that human LIP, as in the monkey, updates remembered saccade targets in an eye-centered frame during eye movements.  We are currently using our stimulation paradigms to further explore the frames of reference used by LIP to encode eye + head gaze shifts.
