Did You See That? A Theory of Visual Perception

Come learn about cutting-edge research from the graduate student community at UC Berkeley in a relaxed, sci-fi-themed cafe setting. This month features a short talk by theoretical neuroscientist Dylan Paiton.

The audience is encouraged to interrupt and ask questions and engage in discussion with our speakers.

Optical illusions and visual hallucinations are highly unusual. How is it that we are able to see something that is not really there? Dylan will outline standard methods that neuroscientists use to better understand how our brains process light, and introduce a theory for conscious vision that has guided decades of computational and experimental neuroscience.
