Efforts to design devices emulating complex cognitive abilities and response processes of
biological systems have long been a coveted goal. Recent advancements in flexible …

The emergence of a unified cognitive moment relies on the coordination of scattered
mosaics of functionally specialized brain regions. Here we review the mechanisms of large …

Brains contain networks of interconnected neurons and so knowing the network architecture
is essential for understanding brain function. We therefore mapped the synaptic-resolution …

Abstract Information processing in the cerebral cortex involves interactions among
distributed areas. Anatomical connectivity suggests that certain areas form local hierarchical …

Most of our knowledge about the functional organization of neuronal systems is based on
the analysis of the firing patterns of individual neurons that have been recorded one by one …

The borders of human visual areas V1, V2, VP, V3, and V4 were precisely and noninvasively
determined. Functional magnetic resonance images were recorded during phase-encoded …

This long-awaited work by prominent Harvard psychologist Stephen Kosslyn integrates a
twenty-year research program on the nature of high-level vision and mental imagery. Image …

Semantic information in the human brain is organized into multiple networks, but the fine-
grain relationships between them are poorly understood. In this study, we compared …

▪ Abstract It has been clear for almost two decades that cortical representations in adult
animals are not fixed entities, but rather, are dynamic and are continuously modified by …

We experience objects as whole, complete entities irrespective of whether they are
perceived by our sensory systems or are recalled from memory. However, it is also known …
