Icelandic Vision Lab
Icelandic Vision Lab focuses on all things visual with a major emphasis on higher-level or "cognitive" aspects of vision: visionlab.is This is a joint account run by IVL PIs (Ásgeirsson, Hansmann-Roth, Kristjánsson, Ólafsdóttir, Sigurdardottir).

- Reposted by Icelandic Vision Lab#neuroskyence people (maybe vision people in particular): how do you think information is "read out" from the visual system? Do downstream areas like PFC get to query anything from V1 to IT? Or just later areas? How plastic are these readouts? Etc. IMO this is always under constrained in modeling.
- Reposted by Icelandic Vision Lab🧠✨How do we rebuild our memories? In our new study, we show that hippocampal ripples kickstart a coordinated expansion of cortical activity that helps reconstruct past experiences. We recorded iEEG from patients during memory retrieval... and found something really cool 👇(thread)

- Hey @vssmtg.bsky.social, do you no longer support diversity and inclusion? Looks like your policies were quietly removed from your website? #VSS2025 #VSS

- goblin.tools breaks tasks into subtasks and subsubtasks with the degree of breakdown adjustable by brain spiciness (via its spice button). Lovely little tool for goblins and others.

- Reposted by Icelandic Vision LabAre short-term memories just noisier versions of what we perceive? Are they fundamentally different? We (Chaipat Chunharas, @mjwolff.bsky.social, @meikehettwer.bsky.social and myself) delved into this in a paper out now in #elife: elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre.... For a quick summary, a 🧵 below:

- Without #science, you would not be reading this. Internet would not exist, computers would not exist, electricity itself would not exist. You would not have a TV, a radio, a coffee maker, an oven, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a phone, or anything else considered a modern convenience. 1/2
