NIH awarded a research grant to Washington University to study neural mechanisms of object recognition using intracranial recordings and computational modeling, aiming to inform therapeutic interventions for related neurological disorders.
Description
This NIH research grant supports a project to examine the neural computations and dynamics within the ventral temporal cortex and medial temporal lobe during object recognition using intracranial recordings and computational algorithms. The study aims to understand how visual features are transformed into semantic representations and to develop potential therapeutic interventions for disorders involving object recognition deficits.
