Voluntary attention selects behaviorally relevant signals for further processing while filtering
out distracter signals. Neural correlates of voluntary visual attention have been reported …

Humans perform goal-directed actions such as reaching for a light switch or gras** a
coffee mug thousands of times a day. Behind the scenes of these seemingly simple actions …

Visual landmarks influence spatial cognition and behavior, but their influence on visual
codes for action is poorly understood. Here, we test landmark influence on the visual …

Neurons represent spatial information in diverse reference frames, but it remains unclear
whether neural reference frames change with task demands and whether these changes …

Visual neglect is a debilitating neuropsychological phenomenon that has many clinical
implications and—in cognitive neuroscience—offers an important lesion deficit model. In this …

Sensorimotor transformations require spatiotemporal coordination of signals, that is, through
both time and space. For example, the gaze control system employs signals that are time …

The cortical mechanisms for reach have been studied extensively, but directionally selective
mechanisms for visuospatial target memory, movement planning, and movement execution …

Frontal eye field (FEF) in macaque monkeys contributes to visual attention, visual–motor
transformations and production of eye movements. Traditionally, neurons in FEF have been …

The sequence of events leading to an eye movement to a target begins the moment visual
information has reached the brain, well in advance of the eye movement itself. The process …

Single-unit (SU) activity—action potentials isolated from one neuron—has traditionally been
employed to relate neuronal activity to behavior. However, recent investigations have shown …
