Freely chasing mammals. Led by Damo in collab with David Fitzpatrick, we show how eye movements enable ferrets to simultaneously navigate and chase fleeing objects Eye saccades align optic flow with retinal specializations during object pursuit in freely moving ferrets: www.cell.com/current-biol...

Eye saccades align optic flow with retinal specializations during object pursuit in freely moving ferrets Motion blur on the retina degrades vision acuity. How do visual systems of animals chasing prey solve this to retain acuity? Wallace et al. show that saccadic eye movements measured in freely pursuing... https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822%2824%2901700-7
