This project aims to advance our understanding of how perceptual information is represented in the human brain and to link the structure of perceptual brain representations to human behaviour. The project plans to use complementary methods for recording brain activity (human neuroimaging and primate single-cell neurophysiology) and cutting-edge analytic techniques to generate a predictive model of behaviour based on the structure of perceptual brain representations. It is anticipated that the results will significantly advance the field of cognitive neuroscience by providing a novel empirical framework for understanding how brain representations are predictive of behaviour.

该项目旨在促进我们对人脑中感知信息的理解，并将感知脑表示的结构与人类行为联系起来。该项目计划使用互补方法记录大脑活动（人类神经成像和灵长类动物的单细胞神经生理学）和尖端的分析技术，以基于感知大脑表示的结构来生成行为的预测模型。预计结果将通过提供一个新颖的经验框架来理解大脑表示如何预测行为，从而显着推动认知神经科学领域。
