The functional architecture of the ventral temporal cortex and its role in categorization
K Grill-Spector, KS Weiner - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2014 - nature.com
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 …

The language network as a natural kind within the broader landscape of the human brain
Abstract Language behaviour is complex, but neuroscientific evidence disentangles it into
distinct components supported by dedicated brain areas or networks. In this Review, we …

Connectivity precedes function in the development of the visual word form area
What determines the cortical location at which a given functionally specific region will arise
in development? We tested the hypothesis that functionally specific regions develop in their …

Lack of selectivity for syntax relative to word meanings throughout the language network
To understand what you are reading now, your mind retrieves the meanings of words and
constructions from a linguistic knowledge store (lexico-semantic processing) and identifies …

Anatomical connections of the visual word form area
The visual word form area (VWFA), a region systematically involved in the identification of
written words, occupies a reproducible location in the left occipitotemporal sulcus in expert …

Converging evidence for functional and structural segregation within the left ventral occipitotemporal cortex in reading
The ventral occipitotemporal cortex (vOTC) is crucial for recognizing visual patterns, and
previous evidence suggests that there may be different subregions within the vOTC involved …

Does the visual word form area split in bilingual readers? A millimeter-scale 7-T fMRI study
In expert readers, a brain region known as the visual word form area (VWFA) is highly
sensitive to written words, exhibiting a posterior-to-anterior gradient of increasing sensitivity …
