报告人简介:

Dr. Michael Goldberg is a David Mahoney  Professor of Brain and Behavior in the Departments of Neuroscience, Neurology,  Psychiatry, and Ophthalmology, Columbia University College of Physicians and  Surgeons.The goal of Dr. Michael Goldberg’s current proposal  is to study a new signal in the parietal cortex of the awake, behaving monkey  that reflects the monkey’s probability of success or failure on the current  trial of a visual search task, rather than bearing any information about what  the monkey will actually do or the stimuli for which it is searching. He  proposes that this signal reflects intrinsic fluctuations in the monkey’s  motivation and arousal, rather than an attention or motor planning. It is  excited by acetylcholine and suppressed by mecamylamine, a nicotinic antagonist,  and is related to the monkey’s recent history of success or failure. He has  concentrated during a long career on the physiology of visual attention, and  this new discovery, coming out of his previous work is departure that requires  the use of new techniques – iontophoresis onto single neurons in the behaving  monkey, and correlating the activity of multiple neurons recorded on different  electrodes—that are now working successfully in his laboratory.
