3D Perception and Neural Circuit Lab

Ari Rosenberg · Madison, Wisconsin

Research Focus

Dr. Ari Rosenberg's lab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison focuses on understanding how primates perceive and interact with the three-dimensional (3D) world. By studying the neural circuits in the brain associated with visual processing and eye movements, the lab aims to uncover the underpinnings of 3D perception and its implications for both normal cognition and neurodevelopmental disorders. The research combines behavioral experiments and advanced techniques to provide insights relevant to both basic science and potential therapeutic applications.

Research Aims

AIM 01Assess the causal contributions of V3A and CIP to 3D perception using electrical microstimulation.

AIM 02Test if V3A and CIP carry presaccadic activity during eye movement tasks.

AIM 03Evaluate how training influences sensorimotor associations in primates.

AIM 04Investigate the relationship between visual selectivity and presaccadic activity as training progresses.
