Several members of the Stanley Laboratory recently spent the afternoon at The Children’s School in the 4th grade classroom of former GIFT Program participant Jocelyn Paez. Jocelyn spent several weeks last summer as a member of the Stanley Lab, learning about our research and working with tools designed to make neuroscience … More Outreach Event: The Children’s School

New Publication – Response reliability observed with voltage-sensitive dye imaging of cortical layer 2/3: the probability of activation hypothesis
A pervasive underlying assumption about sensory processing is that neural activity represents the world in a graded manner: the stronger the input, the stronger the response; the weaker the input, the weaker the response. In work from Dr. Clare Gollnick and colleagues, this assumption was directly considered and investigated through … More New Publication – Response reliability observed with voltage-sensitive dye imaging of cortical layer 2/3: the probability of activation hypothesis
Clarissa Whitmire Awarded the J. Norman and Rosalyn Wells Fellowship
Clarissa Whitmire, a biomedical Ph.D. student working in the Garrett Stanley laboratory, has been awarded the J. Norman and Rosalyn Wells Fellowship. Her long term research objective is to quantify the dynamic encoding of sensory information from the periphery to perception and develop methodologies to control this flow of sensory information. … More Clarissa Whitmire Awarded the J. Norman and Rosalyn Wells Fellowship
New Publication – Directional acuity of whole-body perturbations during standing balance
The ability to perceive the direction of whole-body motion during standing may be critical to maintaining balance and preventing a fall. Our first goal was to quantify kinesthetic perception of whole-body motion by estimating directional acuity thresholds of support-surface perturbations during standing. The directional acuity threshold to lateral deviations in … More New Publication – Directional acuity of whole-body perturbations during standing balance
