The mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus (MD) has been implicated in executive functions
(such as planning, cognitive control, working memory, and decision-making) because of its …

In natural vision, primates actively move their eyes several times per second via saccades. It
remains unclear whether, during this active looking, visual neurons exhibit classical …

Decades of cognitive neuroscience research has shown that where we look is intimately
connected to what we remember. In this article, we review findings from human and …

The discovery of a topological nodal-line (TNL) semimetal phase in ZrSiS has invigorated
the study of other members of this family. Here, we present a comparative electronic …

Human observers make large rapid eye movements—saccades—to bring behaviorally
relevant information into the fovea, where spatial resolution is high. In some visual tasks [1 …

Visual perception is limited by spatial resolution, the ability to discriminate fine details.
Spatial resolution not only declines with eccentricity but also differs for polar angle locations …

Our vision depends upon shifting our high-resolution fovea to objects of interest in the visual
field. Each saccade displaces the image on the retina, which should produce a chaotic …

Visual working memory (WM) storage is largely independent between the left and right
visual hemifields/cerebral hemispheres, yet somehow WM feels seamless. We studied how …

How do humans learn from raw sensory experience? Throughout life, but most obviously in
infancy, we learn without explicit instruction. We propose a detailed biological mechanism …

Psychosis–an impaired contact with reality–is a hallmark of schizophrenia. Many psychotic
symptoms are associated with disruptions in agency–the sense that 'I'cause my actions. A …
