Semir Zeki is a British neurobiologist who has been professor of Neuroesthetics at University College London since 2008. Professor Zeki’s is known for his contributions on the organization of the visual cortex in humans and other primates. One of his earlier keynote findings was the discovery that specific areas of the visual cortex engage in segregated responses to either color vision or visual motion stimulation, and that color and visual motion are perceived at different times. These findings lead to the view that there is a temporal asynchrony in the visual system as a consequence of the processing speeds for different visual attributes. More recently he has also studied the neural correlates affective states, such as the experience of love and hate using fMRI.
