Dr Jenny Bizley asks if you should always trust your brain’s interpretations.
Seeing and hearing allows us to make sense of the world around us, but should you always trust your brain’s interpretation? Our brains process hundreds of sensory inputs at once, but only recently have we discovered how much our sensory systems interact.
In this interactive talk, Dr Jenny Bizley explores perception versus reality and if we can explain what’s happening inside our brains.
Dr Jenny Bizley is a Royal Society University Research Fellow, currently working at the UCL Ear Institute. Jenny seeks to link the patterns of neural activity in the auditory cortex to our perception of the world around us.
