Dear Users This week (4.30-5.30 pm in YNiC) there will be a talk on "Demonstrating functional connectivity between brain regions using MEG" given by myself, Muriel Lobier and Andy Ellis. This talk will take the form of a journal club to discuss connectivity measures in MEG in the context of a paper by Alex Clarke, Kirsten Taylor and Lorraine Tyler [Clarke, A., Taylor, KI and Tyler, LK. (in press). The evolution of meaning: Spatio-temporal dynamics of visual object recognition. J. Cogn. Neurosci. ]. The paper can be downloaded from Lorraine Tyler's website: http://csl.psychol.cam.ac.uk/publications/ Everyone is welcome to attend.

YNiC seminar today
by rem 03 Mar '11

Dear Users Today (4.30-5.30 pm) there will be a YNiC project proposal presentation by Lilia Psalta. The title of Lilia's talk is "Neural correlates of the Thatcher Illusion". Summary: The Thatcher illusion is a phenomenon where it becomes difficult to detect local feature changes in an upside down face, despite identical changes being obvious in an upright face. The illusion was named after the former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher on whose photograph the effect has been most famously demonstrated (Thompson, 1980). The aim of this proposal is to use the Thatcher Illusion to explore how information about the identity, expression and attractiveness of faces is represented in the brain. Everyone is welcome to attend. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.
