Ambiguous images elicit bistable perception, wherein periods of momentary perceptual
stability are interrupted by sudden perceptual switches. When intermittently presented …

In the last decade, the source and the functional meaning of motor variability have attracted
considerable attention in behavioral and brain sciences. This construct classically combined …

In the natural environment, we often form stable perceptual experiences from ambiguous
and fleeting sensory inputs. Which neural activity underlies the content of perception and …

Visual hallucinations (VHs) are perceptions of objects or events in the absence of the
sensory stimulation that would normally support such perceptions. Although all VHs share …

One of the most striking features of neocortical anatomy is the presence of extensive top-
down projections into primary sensory areas. Notably, many of these top-down projections …
