Additional information

This publication demonstrated for the first time that our brains can trade-off sensory and movement uncertainty in a predicted, near-optimal fashion. The work was highlighted by Nature Reviews Neuroscience (Bach & Dolan, 2012), and resulted in invited seminars at Howard Hughes Medical Institute (USA), MRC (London), UCL, Edinburgh University and Göttingen (Germany), 2009-2012. In the paper we established a sensory-cognitive task paradigm that is used at Moorfield’s Eye Hospital/Institute of Ophtamology (Dr Nardini) to assess neurological development in children. It formed the basis for my US$1M HFSP Program Grant (RGP0022/2012), awarded in a worldwide call with 2% success rate.
