The integration of perception and thought

该项目旨在使用一种新的神经标记来发现和概念化大脑是如何将感知与思维结合起来的。该项目结合了认知神经科学和认知科学哲学的方法，旨在展示健康个体的认知表现如何取决于大脑中自上而下和自下而上信号的整合程度。预期的结果是对感知和思想的最佳整合条件的新的经验和哲学理解，以及增强的跨学科能力和跨机构合作。预期的好处是为认知评估提供了一个方便的神经成像工具。

This project aims to use a new neural marker to discover and conceptualise how the brain integrates perception with thought. Combining approaches from cognitive neuroscience and the philosophy of cognitive science, the project intends to show how cognitive performance in healthy individuals depends on the degree of integration of top-down and bottom-up signals in the brain. The expected outcome is new empirical and philosophical understanding of the conditions for optimal integration of perception and thought, as well as enhanced interdisciplinary capacity and cross-institutional collaboration. The anticipated benefit is an accessible neuroimaging tool for cognitive assessment.
