EASTBIO: How does the visual cortex distinguish self-generated and externally-generated visual motion?

University of Edinburgh
School of Neurological and Cardiovascular Sciences (College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine)
Distinguishing self-generated from externally generated sensory input is crucial for guiding behaviour [1]. This ability is thought to be impaired in conditions such as schizophrenia, where sensory disturbances may arise from a failure to correctly attribute sensory input to its self-generated causes.
