- This project took over a decade to complete and I could not be more proud to be part of it...congrats @martinamorea.bsky.social! We show visual perception relies on time-consuming grouping mechanisms. Hope you enjoy the thread! #VisionScience #PsychSciSky #Neuroskyence #Compneurosky

- ...I guess it would be easier to ask "Do you have a Bluesky account"? Yes: entry denied No: entry granted 🧠

- It has been proposed that schizophrenia patients rely more on sensory input and less on prior information. According to this view, they are less affected by visual illusions that rely on perceptual priors. But is this really true?(shorturl.at/jmhKv) 1/6🧵

- Our visual experience is biased towards the past. Despite extensive research on serial dependencies, their purpose remains unknown. In our @natrevpsych.bsky.social paper (rdcu.be/dD8of) we propose they are manifestations of Continuity Fields, purposeful integration mechanisms 1/8
