The ability to adaptively follow conspecific eye movements is crucial for establishing shared
attention and survival. Indeed, in humans, interacting with the gaze direction of others …

The use and neural representation of egocentric spatial reference frames is well-
documented. In contrast, whether the brain represents spatial relationships between objects …

Real-world actions require one to simultaneously perceive, think, and act on the surrounding
world, requiring the integration of (bottom-up) sensory information and (top-down) cognitive …

It has been established that processes relating to 'spatial attention'are implemented at
cortical level by goal-directed (top-down) and stimulus-driven (bottom-up) networks. Spatial …

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 …

Spatial relations (SRs: coordinate/metric vs categorical/non metric) and frames of reference
