摘要

Dr.Leslie Ungerleider, who together with Mortimer Mishkin established the model of "two functionally dissociated cortical visual pathways in the primate brain" [1], passed away on December 11, 2020.Ungerleider's model of two visual pathways is one of the most profound and influential theories in contemporary neuroscience.In addition, Leslie's impact on the Chinese cognitive neuro-science community [2] is so strong that we feel moved to write this essay to memorize her, our beloved colleague and mentor.We hope her scientific heritage will continue to inspire us and give impetus to our scientific efforts to develop cognitive neuroscience in China.
