Petr ZNAMENSKIY

Petr ZNAMENSKIY is a researcher at The Francis Crick Institute in the UK, specializing in neuroscience. His work focuses on understanding how the brain reconstructs three-dimensional environments using visual and locomotion signals. He is known for studying depth perception mechanisms in mice, particularly the role of motion parallax in shaping neural responses in the visual cortex. His research bridges neurophysiology and computational approaches to unravel cortical processing of visual scenes.

He has presented at the Institut de Biologie de l'École Normale Supérieure (IBENS) in Paris, France, discussing his findings on three-dimensional scene representation in the mouse visual cortex. This work highlights the integration of visual and movement data by neurons to form 3D receptive fields, advancing our understanding of innate depth perception mechanisms.
