Even though the foveal region takes up a large portion of the brain’s visual processing area, it hasn’t been studied as much as other parts of our visual field, mostly because it's technically challenging to precisely track where people are looking.”
Yue Guzhang is a fourth-year student in the @uor-braincogsci.bsky.social at the @urochester.bsky.social in the @aplabur.bsky.social studying how attention and fixational eye movements influence our ability to see fine details in the fovea #URochesterResearch

Obsessed with vision and optics. Opinions (have many but share few) are my own and most posts are from my labs at The University of Waterloo (Canada) and UC Berkeley (USA). Oh...and that's my retina in the profile picture.
At the junction of optics, neuroscience, ophthalmology and bioengineering.
