New @CurrentBiology paper from @SchynsPhilippe lab funded by @wellcometrust: “Pre-frontal cortex guides dimension-reducing transformations in the occipito-ventral pathway for categorization behaviors” with @JiayuZhan @Joachim__Gross @drrobinince. We investigate how brain networks actively transform the same complex input scene images into their task-specific lower-dimensional manifolds to support flexible categorization behaviors.

MIT researcher Dr. Aude Oliva and University of Glasgow professor Dr. Philippe G. Schyns developed this famous illusion. Can you see it?

🆕 study led by @UofGlasgow used a perception-based, data-driven method to identify the specific 3D facial features that drive perceptions of social class standing and show how these relate to other stereotype-related judgements. More 👉 gla.ac/48MpZ53
