This work reviews recent advances in technologies for functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) of the human brain and highlights the push for higher functional specificity …

Receptive fields are a core property of cortical organization. Modern neuroimaging allows
routine access to visual population receptive fields (pRFs), enabling investigations of clinical …

Human visual cortex is organized into multiple retinotopic maps. Characterizing the
arrangement of these maps on the cortical surface is essential to many visual neuroscience …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies with ultra-high field (UHF, 7+ Tesla)
technology enable the acquisition of high-resolution images. In this work, we discuss recent …

Columns and layers are fundamental organizational units of the brain. Well known examples
of cortical columns are the ocular dominance columns (ODCs) in primary visual cortex and …

Amblyopia is a prevalent developmental visual disorder of childhood that typically persists in
adults. Due to altered visual experience during critical periods of youth, the structure and …

The primary visual cortex of humans contains patches of neurons responding preferentially
to stimulation of one eye (the ocular dominance columns). Multiple previous studies …

A fundamental scheme in the organization of the early visual cortex is the retinotopic
representation of the contralateral visual hemifield on each hemisphere. We determined the …

The whisker system is an important sensory organ with extensive neural representations in
the brain of the mouse. Patterned neural modules (barrelettes) in the ipsilateral principal …

In humans, each hemisphere comprises an overlay of two visuotopic maps of the
contralateral visual field, one from each eye. Is the capacity of the visual cortex limited to …
