1. Transcranial magnetic stimulation induced blindsight : A systematic review
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Blindsight is a phenomenon in which patients suffering damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) perceive themselves as blind, but nonetheless seem to have some residual capacity to distinguish between visual stimuli better than chance. Blindsight can be divided into two subtypes: blindsight type I and blindsight type II. READ MORE

2. Functional and Dynamical Consequences of Long-Range Patchy Connections in the Primary Visual Cortex
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : While it is a known fact that higher mammals develop a differently structured primary visual cortex than rodents, the reason for this phenomenon remains unknown. Eutherian species that rely primarily on vision establish long-range patchy connections between locally clustered neurons. READ MORE

3. Stroop tasks with visual and auditory stimuli : How different combinations of spoken words, written words, images and natural sounds affect reaction times
University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för lingvistikAbstract : The Stroop effect is the delay in reaction times due to interference. Since the original experiments of 1935, it has been used primarily in linguistic context. Language is a complex skill unique to humans, which involves a large part of the cerebral cortex and many subcortical regions. READ MORE

4. Two subtypes of lung cancer classification from histopathology images based on deep learning
University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisationAbstract : Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) are the most common forms of lung cancer. These two subtypes of lung cancer are usually classified by visual inspection clinically. Our aim is to design an effective strategy based on convolutional neural networks to classify histopathology slides of these two types of lung cancer. READ MORE

5. The Role of Primary Visual Cortex in Visual Awareness
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Despite its great complexity, a great deal is known about the organization and information-processing properties of the visual system. However, the neural correlates of visual awareness are not yet understood. By studying patients with blindsight, the primary visual cortex (V1) has attracted a lot of attention recently. READ MORE
