Independent Encoding of Spatial and Nonspatial Factors in Parietal Cortex
David Freedman and Chris Rishel discuss their work examining the RELATIONSHIP between spatial and non-spatial cognitive signals in posterior parietal cortex. During performance of a visual categorizat...
In this video abstract, the authors discuss their article "The Evolution of Epigenetics: from Prokaryotes to Humans and its Biological Consequences", recently published in Genetics & Epi...
Simulation of the Clock and Wavefront Mechanism - The segmentation clock is modeled here as a population of oscillating cells, whose cyclic gene expression phase is represented in blue in the posterio...
Social jetlag and its consequences. Why are most people in industrialized societies so tired? The reason lies in an increasing discrepancy between our body clocks' internal time and the social demands...
Children with dyslexia have less brain activity underlying visual motion in area V5/MT compared to controls of the same age; however, this difference does not emerge when the dyslexics are compared to...
Object Representations in Visual Agnosia - How are visual and object representations affected by neural injury? In their study analyzing the re-organization of visual representations in an agnosic pat...
In this study, Muto et al. visualized brain activity of a zebrafish larva while it visually perceived a swimming paramecium. This study demonstrates that the visual world is indeed mapped onto a part ...
