Functional anatomy of macaque striate cortex. V. Spatial frequency [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1988 When macaque monkeys view achromatic, sinusoidal gratings of a single spatial frequency, the pattern of 14C-2-deoxy-d-glucose (DG) uptake produced by the gratings is shown to depend on the spatial frequency chosen. When a relatively high (5–7 cycles/deg) spatial frequency is shown binocularly at systematically varied orientations, uptake in parafoveal ...

A perspective on cortical layering and layer-spanning neuronal elements [PDF]
, 2018 This review article addresses the function of the layers of the cerebral cortex. We develop the perspective that cortical layering needs to be understood in terms of its functional anatomy, i.e., the terminations of synaptic inputs on distinct cellular ...

Patterns of Individual Variation in Visual Pathway Structure and Function in the Sighted and Blind. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Many structural and functional brain alterations accompany blindness, with substantial individual variation in these effects. In normally sighted people, there is correlated individual variation in some visual pathway structures.

Age of second language acquisition affects nonverbal conflict processing in children : an fMRI study [PDF]
, 2014 Background: In their daily communication, bilinguals switch between two languages, a process that involves the selection of a target language and minimization of interference from a nontarget language. Previous studies have uncovered the neural structure

Functional anatomy of macaque striate cortex. II. Retinotopic organization [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1988 Macaque monkeys were shown retinotopically-specific visual stimuli during 14C-2-deoxy-d-glucose (DG) infusion in a study of the retinotopic organization of primary visual cortex (V1). In the central half of V1, the cortical magnification was found to be greater along the vertical than along the horizontal meridian, and overall magnification factors ...

Why musical memory can be preserved in advanced Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2015 Musical memory is relatively preserved in Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. In a 7 Tesla functional MRI study employing multi-voxel pattern analysis, Jacobsen et al.
