DESCRIPTION:\nSupported by the generosity of the Killam Trusts\, The Neuro'
 s Killam Seminar Series invites outstanding guest speakers whose research 
 is of interest to the scientific community at The Neuro and 51³Ô¹ÏÍøUnivers
 ity.\n\n\nTo attend in person\, register here\n\nTo watch via vimeo\, clic

 University\, Canada Research Chair in Translating Neuroscience\n\nHost: ch
 ristopher.pack [at] mcgill.ca (Christopher Pack)\n\nAbstract: According to
  canonical models of decision making\, trading speed versus accuracy is ac
 complished by adjusting the threshold for the amount of evidence to be acc
 umulated before responding. Rich Heitz\, in Jeffrey Schall's lab\, carried
  out the first neurophysiological study of speed-accuracy tradeoff\, sampl
 ing neural spiking in the frontal eye field\, superior colliculus\, and su
 pplementary eye field of monkeys performing an inefficient visual search t
 ask with instructed speed-accuracy emphases. Professor Schall will survey 
 the neural findings\, which were more complex but no less comprehensible t
 han the canonical models. A major implication of these results is that the
  proposition linking neural activity to evidence accumulation is more veil
 ed than commonly appreciated.\n
