Here we review recent findings that reveal the functional properties of extra-striate regions in
the human visual cortex that are involved in the representation and perception of objects …

The functions of a cortical area are determined by its extrinsic connections and intrinsic
properties. Using the database CoCoMac, we show that each cortical area has a unique …

There is no generally accepted account of the function of the second visual cortical area
(V2), partly because no simple response properties robustly distinguish V2 neurons from …

How can we disentangle the neural basis of phenomenal consciousness from the neural
machinery of the cognitive access that underlies reports of phenomenal consciousness? We …

This comprehensively updated and expanded revision of the successful second edition
continues to provide detailed coverage of the ever-growing range of research topics in …

In The Unity of Consciousness Tim Bayne draws on philosophy, psychology, and
neuroscience in defence of the claim that consciousness is unified. In the first part of the …

Neuroscientists continue to search for 'the'neural correlate of consciousness (NCC). In this
article, I argue that a framework in which there are at least two distinct NCCs is increasingly …

The content of visual experience depends on how selective attention is distributed in the
visual field. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in humans to test …

Gordon Lynn Walls, a comparative anatomist, observed,“If asked what aspect of vision
means the most to them, a watchmaker may answer 'acuity,'a night flier 'sensitivity,'and an …

We performed a series of functional magnetic resonance imaging experiments to divide the
human MT+ complex into subregions that may be identified as homologs to a pair of …
