| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research project was to understand the mechanisms underlying facilitation/suppression of visually guided eye movements. In the studies, ocular responses elicited by motion of large visual field were extensively examined. It was found, for example, that the ocular responses were appropriately suppressed or facilitated depending on subject's behavioral condition (e.g., steady fixation or tracking). Novel findings from this project would help understand the mechanisms of adaptive control of eye movements.
