Much of the central nervous system is involved in visuomotor transformations for goal-
directed gaze and reach movements. These transformations are often described in terms of …

Spatial updating is the means by which we keep track of the locations of objects in space
even as we move. Four decades of research have shown that humans and non-human …

A moving observer needs to be able to estimate the trajectory of other objects moving in the
scene. Without the ability to do so, it would be difficult to avoid obstacles or catch a ball. We …

The success of the human species in interacting with the environment depends on the ability
to maintain spatial stability despite the continuous changes in sensory and motor inputs …

Allocentric cues can be used to encode locations in visuospatial memory, but it is not known
how and when these representations are converted into egocentric commands for …

Spatial representations in cortical areas involved in reaching movements were traditionally
studied in a frontoparallel plane where the two-dimensional target location and the …

How do we perceive object motion during self-motion using visual information alone?
Previous studies have reported that the visual system can use optic flow to identify and …

There is considerable evidence that the encoding of intended actions in visual space is
represented in dynamic, gaze-centered maps, such that each eye movement requires an …

The vestibular system, which detects motion and orientation of the head in space, is known
to be important in controlling gaze to stabilize vision, to ensure postural stability and to …

We examined the effect of gaze direction relative to target location on reach endpoint errors
made to proprioceptive and multisensory targets. We also explored if and how visual and …
