Research

How does the brain piece together information from the senses to interact with a rapidly changing world? Solving the puzzle of perception is a key activity for the brain - underlying important skills such as

  • Recognising friends and other intriguing objects;
  • Moving our bodies to interact with or avoid interesting or dangerous objects;
  • Working out where we are in the world and how to navigate to a new location.
