Brain regions are often topographically connected: nearby locations within one brain area
connect with nearby locations in another area. Map** these connection topographies, or …

Brain activity fluctuates continuously, even in the absence of changes in sensory input or
motor output. These intrinsic activity fluctuations are correlated across brain regions and are …

The human visual system is organized as a hierarchy of maps that share the topography of
the retina. Known retinotopic maps have been identified using simple visual stimuli under …

Co-variations in resting state activity are thought to arise from a variety of correlated inputs to
neurons, such as bottom-up activity from lower areas, feedback from higher areas, recurrent …

Current advances in neurosciences deal with the functional architecture of the central
nervous system, paving the way for general theories that improve our understanding of brain …

Sensory systems project information in a highly organized manner to the brain, where it is
preserved in maps of the sensory structures. These sensory projections are altered in …

Early visual areas have neuronal receptive fields that form a sampling mosaic of visual
space, resulting in a series of retinotopic maps in which the same region of space is …

In functional MRI (fMRI), population receptive field (pRF) models allow a quantitative
description of the response as a function of the features of the stimuli that are relevant for …

The degree to which the adult human visual cortex retains the ability to functionally adapt to
damage at the level of the eye remains ill-understood. Previous studies on cortical …

In the absence of stimulus or task, the cortex spontaneously generates rich and consistent
functional connectivity patterns (termed resting state networks) which are evident even …
