Predictive updating of an object's spatial coordinates from pre-saccade to post-saccade contributes to stable visual perception. Whether object features are predictively remapped remains contested. We set out to characterise the spatiotemporal dynamics of feature processing during stable fixation and active vision.

Characterization of Optokinetic Nystagmus in Healthy Participants With a Novel Oculography Device.

Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Massachusetts Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Objective: To develop a proof-of-concept smart-phone-based eye-tracking algorithm to assess non-pathologic optokinetic (OKN) nystagmus in healthy participants. Current videonystagmography (VNG) is typically restricted to in-office use, and advances in portable vestibular diagnostics would yield immense public health benefits.

Study Design: Prospective cohort study.

The near-miss to cross-modal commutativity.

Atten Percept Psychophys

Department of Psychology, University of Tübingen, Schleichstr. 4, 72076, Tübingen, Germany.

This paper is a follow-up to Ellermeier, Kattner, and Raum (2021, Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 83, 2955-2967), and provides a reanalysis of their data on cross-modal commutativity from a Bayesian perspective, and a theory-based analysis grounded on a recently suggested extension of a global psychophysical approach to cross-modal judgments (Heller, 2021, Psychological Review, 128, 509-524). This theory assumes that stimuli are judged against respondent-generated internal references that are modality-specific and potentially role-dependent (i.e.

Retinoids and retinoid-binding proteins: Unexpected roles in metabolic disease.

Curr Top Dev Biol

January 2025

Department of Pharmacology and Cleveland Center for Membrane and Structural Biology, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, United States.

Alterations in tissue expression levels of both retinol-binding protein 2 (RBP2) and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) have been associated with metabolic disease, specifically with obesity, glucose intolerance and hepatic steatosis. Our laboratories have shown that this involves novel pathways not previously considered as possible linkages between impaired retinoid metabolism and metabolic disease development. We have established both biochemically and structurally that RBP2 binds with very high affinity to very long-chain unsaturated 2-monoacylglycerols like the canonical endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) and other endocannabinoid-like substances.
