Space and the parietal cortex

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2007
Current views of the parietal cortex have difficulty accommodating the human inferior parietal lobe (IPL) within a simple dorsal versus ventral stream dichotomy. In humans, lesions of the right IPL often lead to syndromes such as hemispatial neglect that are seemingly in accord with the proposal that this region has a crucial role in spatial processing.

Neuropsychology of the parietal lobe: Luria’s and contemporary conceptions

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The parietal lobe, constituting approximately 20% of the human brain, comprises two main regions: the somatosensory cortex and the posterior parietal cortex.

Navigating from hippocampus to parietal cortex [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
The navigational system of the mammalian cortex comprises a number of interacting brain regions. Grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex and place cells in the hippocampus are thought to participate in the formation of a dynamic representation of the animal's current location, and these cells are presumably critical for storing the representation in

Inactivation of Prefrontal Cortex Delays Emergence From Sevoflurane Anesthesia

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
Studies aimed at investigating brain regions involved in arousal state control have been traditionally limited to subcortical structures. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that inactivation of prefrontal cortex, but not two subregions within

The parietal cortex and saccade planning: lessons from human lesion studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
The parietal cortex is considered a critical interface for attention and integration of multiple sensory signals that can be used for the implementation of motor plans.

The role of right and left parietal lobes in the conceptual processing of numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Neuropsychological and functional imaging studies have associated the conceptual processing of numbers with bilateral parietal regions (including intraparietal sulcus).

Spatial Updating in Human Parietal Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2003
Single neurons in monkey parietal cortex update visual information in conjunction with eye movements. This remapping of stimulus representations is thought to contribute to spatial constancy. We hypothesized that a similar process occurs in human parietal cortex and that we could visualize it with functional MRI.

Different neural mechanisms for the comparison and priming distance effects: an fMRI study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), the present study examined whether the comparison distance effect (CDE) and the priming distance effect (PDE) in number processing had the same underlying neural mechanisms.

Regional knockdown of NDUFS4 implicates a thalamocortical circuit mediating anesthetic sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Knockout of the mitochondrial complex I protein, NDUFS4, profoundly increases sensitivity of mice to volatile anesthetics. In mice carrying an Ndufs4lox/lox gene, adeno-associated virus expressing Cre recombinase was injected into regions of the brain ...
