The statistics of binocular rivalry at different combinations of image contrast is reproduced quantitatively by competing out-of-equilibrium populations of independent neural assemblies with idealized attractor dynamics.

A combined behavioural and electroencephalographic approach investigating the covert allocation of attention shows evidence for distributed periodic sampling away from a conscious visual image.

Inducing illusory ownership of a fake hand increases the perceptual dominance of that hand during binocular rivalry.

Conscious visual percepts are encoded by face patches in the absence of report, can be decoded from population recordings, and are multiplexed with the veridical physical stimulus.

A new method for inducing, measuring and modelling visual hallucinations in healthy people reveals that hallucinations share common underlying mechanisms with normal sensory perception.

A series of experiments suggest that the fronto-parietal attentional network is involved in controlling eye-based attention, and FEF plays a crucial causal role in generating the attention-induced ocular dominance shift.

When conscious visual perception changes, the observer's pupils simultaneously signal the accompanying change in visual cortical representation, and specific neuromodulatory activity that helps translate the altered visual experience into behavior.

Having the eye open under the patch, even though this does not change the exogenous stimulation because the eye is occluded, will result in an enhanced short-term effect for ocular dominance due to the internal neural states.

Two hour deprivation of vision in one eye transiently boosts the representation of the deprived eye (suppressing the non-deprived eye) in adult human V1 and along the ventral pathway.
