Topic: vision prosthetics

Eliciting percepts akin to natural vision using brain computer interfaces is the holy grail of vision prosthetics. However, progress has been slowed by our lack of understanding of how the human visual cortex processes and encodes information as well as how external perturbations, such as electrical stimulation via multi-electrode arrays, might perturb the recurrent cortical dynamics. Furthermore, investigating these questions directly remains difficult as we rarely have the opportunity to probe the human cortex in-vivo. From this limitation and thanks to the current exponential increase in
