Against cortical reorganisation
Neurological insults, such as congenital blindness, deafness, amputation, and stroke, often
result in surprising and impressive behavioural changes. Cortical reorganisation, which …

Representational models: A common framework for understanding encoding, pattern-component, and representational-similarity analysis
Representational models specify how activity patterns in populations of neurons (or, more
generally, in multivariate brain-activity measurements) relate to sensory stimuli, motor …

Hyperalignment: Modeling shared information encoded in idiosyncratic cortical topographies
Information that is shared across brains is encoded in idiosyncratic fine-scale functional
topographies. Hyperalignment captures shared information by projecting pattern vectors for …

Peeling the onion of brain representations
The brain's function is to enable adaptive behavior in the world. To this end, the brain
processes information about the world. The concept of representation links the information …

Neural organization of hierarchical motor sequence representations in the human neocortex
Although it is widely accepted that the brain represents movement sequences hierarchically,
the neural implementation of this organization is still poorly understood. To address this …

Beyond body maps: Information content of specific body parts is distributed across the somatosensory homunculus
The homunculus in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) is famous for its body part selectivity,
but this dominant feature may eclipse other representational features, eg, information …
