DESCRIPTION:To create a representation of the environment\, the sensory sy
 stems collect and compute features in increasingly complex stages. The vis
 ual system\, in particular\, is capable of recognizing objects effortlessl
 y in just a couple of hundred milliseconds. The primate brain recruits a s
 pecific set of brain regions to represent an object from low-level feature
  detection in the early visual cortex to high-level object categorization 
 in the occipitotemporal cortex. Behavioral studies in dogs suggest that si
 milarly to primates\, canines encode high-level object categories from vis
 ual stimuli. However\, early in evolution\, the carnivore visual pathway d
 iverged from the primate. The main objectives of my research are to locali
 ze where both low-level and high-level feature detection takes place in th
 e dog brain compared to the human brain.\n\n
