Environmental enrichment does not influence hypersynchronous network activity in the Tg2576 mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2015
The cognitive reserve hypothesis claims that the brain can overcome pathology by reinforcing preexistent processes or by developing alternative cognitive strategies.

Distractor-induced saccade trajectory curvature reveals visual contralateral bias with respect to the dominant eye

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The functional consequences of the visual system lateralization referred to as “eye dominance” remain poorly understood. We previously reported shorter hand reaction times for targets appearing in the contralateral visual hemifield with respect to the ...

Theta oscillations locked to intended actions rhythmically modulate perception

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Ongoing brain oscillations are known to influence perception, and to be reset by exogenous stimulations. Voluntary action is also accompanied by prominent rhythmic activity, and recent behavioral evidence suggests that this might be coupled with ...

No evidence for a preferential role of sleep in episodic memory abstraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Substantial evidence suggests that sleep has a role in declarative memory consolidation. An influential notion holds that such sleep-related memory consolidation is associated with a process of abstraction.

DiCoT: A methodology for applying Distributed Cognition to the design of teamworking systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Distributed Cognition is growing in popularity as a way of reasoning about group working and the design of artefacts within work systems. DiCoT (Distributed Cognition for Teamwork) is a methodology and representational system we are developing to support

The Natural History of Musical Rhythm : Functional and Mechanistic Theories on the Evolution of Human Rhythm Cognition and the Relevance of Rhythmic Animal Behaviors

open access: yes, 2021
Recently, interest has been growing in investigating rhythm cognition and behavior in nonhuman animals as a way of tracking the evolutionary origins of human musicality—that is, the ability to perceive, enjoy, and produce music. During the past 2 decades,

Offloading cognition onto cognitive technology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
"Cognizing" (e.g., thinking, understanding, and knowing) is a mental state. Systems without mental states, such as cognitive technology, can sometimes contribute to human cognition, but that does not make them cognizers.
