Particularly, there seems to be substantial influence of object identity on the visual system's willingness to stereo-encode. I don't think this should be a surprise anymore in light of work in colour and lightness perception, but the record does need to be set straight. In our la

Did you know that ~70% of the normal population have some degree of eye dominance? We use this term loosely here, but refer specifically to the a mysterious imbalance in how V1 treats the two eyes' inputs. In our latest IOVS paper, we look for the optimal protocol and show that training under certain conditions can lead to a re-balancing of the inputs.
