CENTER FOR NEUROPROSTHETICS (CNP) SEMINAR
Abstract:
(about the speaker)
Prof. Franck Vidal is a Neuroscience Professor at Université de la Méditerranée in Marseille (France). His research focuses on the understanding of the anatomical and temporal organization of sensorimotor information flow. By combining behavioral, neurophysiological and neuropharmaceutical methods in human and rats, his group aims at determining at which moment (at the millisecond level) and in which structure (macro- and micro-anatomical) do the operations allowing the nervous system to react to an environmental stimulus take place. Similarly, he also aims at testing the hypothesis that temporal perception depends on a high-frequency “internal clock”. The integration or the counting of the impulses of such an oscillator by neural structures from which activity can be recorded could explain the basic mechanisms of subjective temporal perception.
