A new CBVG preprint: A recurrent cortical model can parsimoniously explain the effect of expectations on sensory processes biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Bilkent Univesity Graduate School of Science & Engineering is organizing a virtual open house on the 27th of March. Neuroscience Program will be there. Details will be announced soon.

We have a postdoctoral training position available at our Giessen lab. You can find more information about the position at web2.bilkent.edu.tr/vision/job-opp…

We were at ECVP 2022 at Nijmegen

Two recent news from our alumni: Dr. Zahide Pamir received TUBITAK 2232B 'return to Turkiye' award, and Dr. Buse Urgen started her academic career as an assistant professor at TED University.

New article with Tugce Gurbuz 🧠 Tilt aftereffect spreads across the visual field. doi.org/10.1016/j.visr… (bioRxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…). Prolonged exposure to a stimulus at a certain location may affect the perception of subsequently shown stimuli at other locations.

New article with @AmnaMal20207663 and Doerschner. Unmet expectations about material properties delay perceptual decisions. doi.org/10.1016/j.visr… (bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) When an object behaves in an unexpected way, we get surprised and our decisions are delayed

As the frequency of surround temporal modulation increases, the dynamic lightness induction reduces, and contrast border energy increases. V1 fMRI activity follows lightness induction.

Çevrenin zamansal değişim frekansı arttıkça açıklık indüklemesi azalıyor, sınır kontras enerjisi artıyor. V1 fMRI aktivasyonu indükleme ile uyumlu.
