Damage to Association Fiber Tracts Impairs Recognition of the Facial Expression of Emotion [PDF]
An array of cortical and subcortical structures have been implicated in the recognition of emotion from facial expressions. It remains unknown how these regions communicate as parts of a system to achieve recognition, but white matter tracts are likely ...

Cortical Visual Impairment: New Directions [PDF]
Cortical visual impairment is the leading cause of bilateral low vision in children in the U.S., yet very little research is being performed to find new diagnostic measures and treatments. Dr. Velma Dobson pioneering work on visual assessments of developmentally delayed children stands out as highly significant in this field.

Behavioural clusters and predictors of performance during recovery from stroke [PDF]
We examined the patterns and variability of recovery post-stroke in multiple behavioral domains. A large cohort of first time stroke patients with heterogeneous lesions was studied prospectively and longitudinally at 1-2 weeks, 3 months and one year post-

Intramodal cortical plastic changes after moderate visual impairment in human amblyopia
Summary: Early blindness results in alterations in the neural responses to auditory stimuli. Here we show that even moderately reduced vision in one eye early in life is sufficient to induce neural plastic changes in voice processing.

Electroencephalograms of Children with Permanent Cortical Visual Impairment [PDF]
ABSTRACT:The electroencephalograms of 40 children with permanent cortical visual impairment (CVI) were studied. CVI was diagnosed in the presence of severe visual loss, normal or minimal ocular findings and clinical, electrodiagnostic and CT evidence of postgeniculate lesions involving the visual cortex. All patients had a multidisciplinary evaluation,

Progressive compromise of nouns and action verbs in posterior cortical atrophy [PDF]
Processing of nouns and action verbs can be differentially compromised following lesions to posterior and anterior/motor brain regions, respectively. However, little is known about how these deficits progress in the course of neurodegeneration.

Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of prematurity
Increasing rates of preterm births coupled with better survival of these infants have resulted in higher prevalence of systemic and ocular complications associated with prematurity.

Structural and functional differences in medial prefrontal cortex underlie distractibility and suppression deficits in ageing. [PDF]
Older adults experience deficits in working memory (WM) that are acutely exacerbated by the presence of distracting information. Human neurophysiological studies have revealed that these changes are accompanied by a diminished ability to suppress visual ...
