Objects are the core meaningful elements in our visual environment. Classic theories of
object vision focus upon object recognition and are elegant and simple. Some of their …

Information that is shared across brains is encoded in idiosyncratic fine-scale functional
topographies. Hyperalignment captures shared information by projecting pattern vectors for …

Cognitive Neuroscience of Language provides an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and
pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in this exciting field. It …

Survival prompts organisms to prepare adaptive behavior in response to environmental and
social threat. However, what are the specific features of the appearance of a conspecific that …

The neural systems supporting scene-perception and spatial-memory systems of the human
brain are well-described. But how do these neural systems interact? Here, using fine …

Patterns of brain activity contain meaningful information about the perceived world. Recent
decades have welcomed a new era in neural analyses, with computational techniques from …

The extrastriatal visual cortex is known to exhibit distinct response profiles to complex stimuli
of varying ecological importance (eg faces, scenes, and tools). Although food is primarily …

Cognitive models in psychology and neuroscience widely assume that the human brain
maintains an abstract representation of tasks. This assumption is fundamental to theories …

Naturalistic, dynamic movies evoke strong, consistent, and information-rich patterns of
activity over a broad expanse of cortex and engage multiple perceptual and cognitive …

Some of the most impressive functional specializations in the human brain are found in the
occipitotemporal cortex (OTC), where several areas exhibit selectivity for a small number of …
