Existing models propose that primate visual cortex is divided into two functionally distinct
pathways. The ventral pathway computes the identity of an object; the dorsal pathway …

Abstract Language behaviour is complex, but neuroscientific evidence disentangles it into
distinct components supported by dedicated brain areas or networks. In this Review, we …

The neuroscience of perception has recently been revolutionized with an integrative
modeling approach in which computation, brain function, and behavior are linked across …

How individual differences in brain network organization track behavioral variability is a
fundamental question in systems neuroscience. Recent work suggests that resting-state and …

Transformer models such as GPT generate human-like language and are predictive of
human brain responses to language. Here, using functional-MRI-measured brain responses …

The human thalamus is a brain structure that comprises numerous, highly specific nuclei.
Since these nuclei are known to have different functions and to be connected to different …

Theories of human cognition prominently feature'Broca's area', which causally contributes to
a myriad of mental functions. However, Broca's area is not a monolithic, multipurpose unit–it …

Importance The association between poverty and unfavorable cognitive outcomes is robust,
but most research has focused on individual household socioeconomic status (SES). There …

The brain's default mode network (DMN) has become closely associated with self-referential
mental activity, particularly in the resting-state. While the DMN is important for such …

Human cooperation is highly unusual. We live in large groups composed mostly of non-
relatives. Evolutionists have proposed a number of explanations for this pattern, including …
