3) Most importantly, we found a functional dissociation between Stuff and Things within both the dorsal and ventral visual pathways.

2) The Frontoparietal Physics Network’ which we know processes the physics of rigid objects also represents the physics of Stuff.

1) The Lateral Occipital Complex (LOC) represents not only rigid 3D shapes but also deformable materials and Stuff that has no constant shape.

We scanned volunteers using fMRI while they watched video clips of rigid and deformable “Things” as well as granular and liquid “Stuff”. Our study revealed 3 key results: ...

Kick off #VSS2025 with our symposium “25 Years of Seeing ‘Stuff’—Advances and Challenges in Material Perception” in Talk Room 2 on Friday morning 10:30am – 12:30pm.
We have a great lineup of speakers who will share deep insights and fun demos! 👀🧠🌊
