    Talk Title: Contributions of prefrontal cortex to spatial and feature attention

    McGovern Institute Director Robert Desimone is responsible for the overall scientific direction of the institute and is supported by the Institute’s administrative staff.  His lab studies the brain mechanisms underlying attention.  Prior to joining the McGovern Institute in 2004 he was director of the Intramural Research Program at the National Institutes of Mental Health. 

    Followed by a reception in the 3rd floor atrium with appetizers and drinks.

    This talk is available by zoom webinar: https://mit.zoom.us/j/98841893582
