From neuroscience to society: A multi-disciplinary study of human perception and cognition

该项目旨在使用多学科方法来研究影响人类感知和认知的因素-从基础神经科学的水平，到当这些功能受损或增强时个人和社会感受到的更广泛的影响。这将为关于大脑如何产生意识体验的基本研究问题提供信息，确定视觉认知功能改变与精神病临床症状之间的关系，并确定目前在澳大利亚境内与非医疗使用药物以增强认知或知觉功能有关的流行情况和神经伦理问题。

This project aims to use a multi-disciplinary approach to investigate the factors influencing human perception and cognition - from the level of basic neuroscience, through to the wider impact felt by individuals and society when these functions are either impaired or enhanced. This will inform the basic research question of how the brain generates a conscious experience, identify the relationship between altered visual cognitive function and clinical symptoms of psychosis, and determine the current prevalence and neuroethical issues associated with the non-medical use of drugs to enhance cognitive or perceptual function within Australia.
