Those of us whose obsessions tend to overtake polite conversation, betraying either a slight social ineptitude or quirky personality trait, depending on who you ask, tend to find a home in the academic life. That such a setting was afforded to me requires my unrelenting thanks. I cannot think of a more joyous situation than the last six years of my life, where I was expected and able to be thinking intensely about what I wanted to think about. I came to Caltech primarily as a result of an interesting conversation with Christof Koch, about consciousness, quantum mechanics, and art, when I first visited during the winter of 2009. That he became my advisor guaranteed that I would be cared for during my graduate studies. Christof takes the calling of Doktorvater seriously. The environment of K-lab, by Christof’s example and design, was one of intense intellectual playfulness.

  • The Macaque Face Patch System: a Window Into Object Representation
    Downloaded from symposium.cshlp.org on August 3, 2015 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press The Macaque Face Patch System: A Window into Object Representation DORIS TSAO Division of Biology and Biological Engineering and Computation and Neural Systems, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125 Correspondence: [email protected] The macaque brain contains a set of regions that show stronger fMRI activation to faces than other classes of object. This “face patch system” has provided a unique opportunity to gain insight into the organizing principles of IT cortex and to dissect the neural mechanisms underlying form perception, because the system is specialized to process one class of complex forms, and because its computational components are spatially segregated. Over the past 5 years, we have set out to exploit this system to clarify the nature of object representation in the brain through a multilevel approach combining electrophysiology, anatomy, and behavior. These experiments reveal (1) a remarkably precise connectivity of face patches to each other, (2) a functional hierarchy for representation of view-invariant identity comprising at least three distinct stages along the face patch system, and (3) the computational mechanisms used by cells in face patches to detect and recognize faces, including measurement of diagnostic local contrast features for detection and measurement of face feature values for recognition. How does the brain represent objects? This question nature of these steps remains a mystery. One major trans- had its beginnings in philosophy. Our fundamental intu- formation appears to be segmentation (i.e., organizing ition of the physical world consists of a space containing visual information into discrete pieces corresponding to objects, and philosophers starting from Plato wondered different objects) (Zhou et al.

  • Studying Conscious and Unconscious Vision with Fmri: the Bold Promise
    STUDYING CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS VISION WITH FMRI: THE BOLD PROMISE Thesis by Julien Dubois In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 2013 (Defended May 29, 2013) ii © 2013 Julien Dubois All Rights Reserved iii To my wife Christine, whose face I consciously perceive every morning when I open my eyes, and it makes me so happy. iv v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Every single day I wake up and I am grateful. Yes, even on those days while I was writing this thesis, an infamously grueling experience. I have always been free to pursue my dream, even if it has been in constant evolution. When I was in high school, my dream was to study and save the tigers with an organization like the World Wildlife Fund. Then, as my studies went on, my dream evolved into wanting to solve the puzzle of how our planet got to be what it is (I got a bachelor’s and master’s degree in earth and atmospheric sciences). My dream evolved further into wanting to understand how life started (I got a master’s degree in biochemistry, focused on the origins of life). But my dream was not done maturing yet. I gave it a little more time to do so, and went traveling around the world with my favorite person on this planet. During my travels, I came across Christof Koch’s 2004 book, The Quest for Consciousness, and my dream finally entered puberty. I needed to understand the brain! I needed to understand what made us do everything that we did, know everything that we knew, feel everything that we felt, discover everything that we discovered.

  • Brain's Face Detector Lights up Questions About Autism’
    Spectrum | Autism Research News https://www.spectrumnews.org NEWS Brain’s face detector lights up questions about autism's origins BY SARAH DEWEERDT 15 OCTOBER 2015 The brain’s face detector is not hard to find. To see to it, simply put someone in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner and show them a series of images: a house, a face, a landscape, a face, a bicycle, another face. An irregular patch on the surface of the brain, just behind the ear, glows brighter in response to faces than it does for any other object or scene. This fusiform face area (FFA) occupies a spot on the cerebral cortex — the outer shell of the brain that is responsible for complex cognitive functions — and is larger in the right hemisphere than in the left. The area “is overwhelmingly reliable in its activation and in our ability to identify it in individual people time and time and time again,” says Suzy Scherf, assistant professor of psychology and neuroscience at Penn State University in University Park, Pennsylvania. Abnormalities in the FFA in people with autism are as easy to identify as the area itself: It tends to glow less brightly in people with autism when they look at faces than it does in controls1. “It’s not that you can’t find it,” Scherf says. “It just is a very weak signal.” The meaning of this difference, however, is harder to pinpoint. Most scientists agree that difficulties in understanding human faces and their expressions are tied to social deficits in autism. And yet weak activation of the FFA is not at the root of the disorder.

  • Open Letter to Francis Collins and Michael Lauer
    To: Francis Collins, MD, PhD Director National Institutes of Health CC: Michael Lauer, MD Deputy Director for Extramural Research National Institutes of Health 26 September 2017 Dear Dr. Collins, We, the 62 undersigned awardees of the NIH High-Risk, High-Reward Research Program, are writing to express our concern about the NIH’s policy that broadens the definition of a clinical trial to include a great deal of basic discovery science. We join others in asking you to delay the implementation of any rule change until its implications have been entirely fleshed out, with input from the basic science community. We are not alone in our concern. Over 3500 scientists have signed an open letter addressed to you [http://ipetitions.com/petition/open-letter-nih-collins], requesting that the NIH delays implementation of this policy. The requested delay would give the NIH more time to work with basic scientists to update its clinical trials policy so as to ensure that it does not have adverse effects on basic research communities. Those 3500 scientists believe that the clinical trials policy should ensure that research is conducted in an open, transparent, and reproducible fashion, without handcuffing discovery science. We agree with them. In its current form, unfortunately, the policy will have a chilling effect. It will reduce the number of funding opportunities available to basic scientists, severely complicate review of discovery science proposals, and reduce access to research experience for undergrads and graduate students. Plainly, the policy hurts discovery science and the people who do it. We agree with the analyses presented in a recent Neuron article, which noted that NIH’s case studies, which are intended to clarify the types of research newly classified as clinical trials, are, in fact, rife with contradictions [http://www.cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896-6273(17)30789-4].
