[Neuropostdocs] Breakfast with Dr. Carlos Ponce

[Pregent, Stephanie]

"Tuning landscapes of the primate ventral stream," by Carlos R. Ponce, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School

Join the Neuroscience Program seminar speaker, tomorrow, March 7th for breakfast at Courier Café.  Breakfast will be covered by NSP.  Dr. Ponce's talk will explore the hypothesis that primates' ability to understand many types of complicated images relies on visual neurons encoding complex "prototypes" - learned templates combining colors, shapes, and textures. By studying multiple regions of the monkey brain, we will investigate the neuron's range of tuning over vast image spaces, and how this relates to our exceptional visual abilities.

Please email me or Jennifer Mitchell if interested.
