The Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology 2012 was awarded to Marlene R. Cohen, Assistant Professor at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Cohen uses the responses of groups of visual neurons to estimate which part of the visual world an animal is paying attention to at any given moment. Her approach provides a new way to study how our mental activity affects what we perceive and how cognitive processes such as attention are controlled.”
