Studies on the neural mechanisms of time perception have made significant progress in the last decade.

In this new paper, Hayashi (Amano Group, CiNet) and Ivry (UC Berkeley) reported evidence that, by combining a temporal illusion and neuroimaging technique, the subjective experience of time is reflected in the activity of the supramarginal gyrus in the human brain.
