To learn how cognition is implemented in the brain, we must build computational models
that can perform cognitive tasks, and test such models with brain and behavioral …

Visual categorization is thought to occur in the human ventral temporal cortex (VTC), but
how this categorization is achieved is still largely unknown. In this Review, we consider the …

Understanding object representations requires a broad, comprehensive sampling of the
objects in our visual world with dense measurements of brain activity and behavior. Here …

Modular and distributed coding theories of category selectivity along the human ventral
visual stream have long existed in tension. Here, we present a reconciling framework …

Psilocybin is a classic psychedelic compound that may have efficacy for the treatment of
mood and substance use disorders. Acute psilocybin effects include reduced negative …

The central processing pathways of the human olfactory system are not fully understood.
The olfactory bulb projects directly to a number of cortical brain structures, but the distinct …

Owing to advances in neuroimaging technology, the past couple of decades have witnessed
a surge of research on brain mechanisms that underlie human cognition. Despite the …

Face perception relies on computations carried out in face-selective cortical areas. These
areas have been intensively investigated for two decades, and this work has been guided by …

According to a widely used theoretical perspective, our everyday experiences lead us to
become natural experts at perceiving and recognising human faces. However, there has …

Understanding the brain requires us to answer both what the brain does, and how it does it.
Using a series of examples, I make the case that behavior is often more useful than …
