The Binding Window of Perception | Nikita Rammohan | TEDxYouth@ConejoUSD

Sensory perception in the context of autism is the topic of Nikita Rammohan's talk. Nikita had the chance to work in a buddy program with third grade students on the Autism Spectrum, immediately saw how they were bullied, and wondered why. She reached out to a professor at Vanderbilt University to study the science of perception that affects nearly 49 million people. Her newfound understanding led to a friendship with an autistic peer and a deep understanding of what it is like to look through the temporal binding window, the window of perception. Nikita Rammohan
