Models of working memory (WM) commonly focus on how information is encoded into and
retrieved from storage at specific moments. However, in the majority of real-life processes …

Since the original characterization of the ventral visual pathway, our knowledge of its
neuroanatomy, functional properties, and extrinsic targets has grown considerably. Here we …

Most research on the neurobiology of language focuses on language alone. However, new
biological functions commonly make use of previously existing mechanisms. Thus, language …

A significant body of research in cognitive neuroscience is aimed at understanding how
object concepts are represented in the human brain. However, it remains unknown whether …

We currently lack a unified and mechanistic account of how the hippocampus supports a
range of disparate cognitive functions that includes episodic memory, imagining the future …

Most research on neurodevelopmental disorders has focused on their abnormalities.
However, what remains intact may also be important. Increasing evidence suggests that …

Concepts organize the relationship among individual stimuli or events by highlighting
shared features. Often, new goals require updating conceptual knowledge to reflect …

Alzheimer's disease researchers have been intrigued by the selective regional vulnerability
of the brain to amyloid-β plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles. Post-mortem studies …

Category-specificity has been demonstrated in the human posterior ventral temporal cortex
for a variety of object categories. Although object representations within the ventral visual …

Recognising objects goes beyond vision, and requires models that incorporate different
aspects of meaning. Most models focus on superordinate categories (eg, animals, tools) …
