Split-second insights from the brain's dual-stream visual system

Neuron. 2024 Dec 18;112(24):3991-3993. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2024.11.014.

Abstract

In this issue of Neuron, Thompson et al.1 demonstrate that the brain's dual-stream architecture enables zero-shot recognition of novel objects and scenes, highlighting the role of motor signals from eye movements as both inputs to and outputs from cognitive computation.
