Transient brain activity dynamics discriminate levels of consciousness during anesthesia

This study identifies network temporal dynamics as a reliable signature of consciousness levels during anesthesia using fMRI data from macaques.

Is there a neural common factor for visual illusions?

The paper re-evaluates the correlation between visual illusion susceptibility and neural measures, finding no significant correlations at the perceptual or neural levels.

It's not the spoon that bends: Internal states of the observer determine serial dependence

This study challenges the idea that perception uses optimal strategies by showing serial dependence is stronger when prior stimuli are more uncertain, suggesting internal observer states influence perception.
