Computational and Neuronal Basis of Visual Confidence Open
The primate brain excels at transforming photons into knowledge. When light strikes the back of the eye, opsin molecules within rods and cones absorb photons, triggering a change in membrane potential. This energy transfer initiates a casc…

Neural basis of concurrent deliberation toward a choice and confidence judgment Open
Decision confidence plays a key role in flexible behavior and (meta)cognition, but its underlying neural mechanisms remain elusive. To uncover the latent dynamics of confidence formation at the level of single neurons and population activi…

How the brain controls decision making in a multisensory world Open
Sensory systems evolved to provide the organism with information about the environment to guide adaptive behaviour. Neuroscientists and psychologists have traditionally considered each sense independently, a legacy of Aristotle and a natur…

Self-motion perception and sequential decision-making: where are we heading? Open
To navigate and guide adaptive behaviour in a dynamic environment, animals must accurately estimate their own motion relative to the external world. This is a fundamentally multisensory process involving integration of visual, vestibular a…

Focal optogenetic suppression in macaque area MT biases direction discrimination and decision confidence, but only transiently Open
Insights from causal manipulations of brain activity depend on targeting the spatial and temporal scales most relevant for behavior. Using a sensitive perceptual decision task in monkeys, we examined the effects of rapid, reversible inacti…

The influence of evidence volatility on choice, reaction time and confidence in a perceptual decision Open
Many decisions are thought to arise via the accumulation of noisy evidence to a threshold or bound. In perception, the mechanism explains the effect of stimulus strength, characterized by signal-to-noise ratio, on decision speed, accuracy …
