Cortical Activation during Landmark-Centered vs. Gaze-Centered Memory of Saccade Targets in the Human: An FMRI Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2017
A remembered saccade target could be encoded in egocentric coordinates such as gaze-centered, or relative to some external allocentric landmark that is independent of the target or gaze (landmark-centered).

Looking for discriminating is different from looking for looking's sake. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Recent studies provide evidence for task-specific influences on saccadic eye movements. For instance, saccades exhibit higher peak velocity when the task requires coordinating eye and hand movements.

Medication only improves limb movements while deep brain stimulation improves eye and limb movements during visually-guided reaching in Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
BackgroundAntiparkinson medication and subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS), two common treatments of Parkinson’s disease (PD), effectively improve skeletomotor movements.

Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay in Two Half‐Siblings

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SACS gene. We report the clinical, radiologic and neurophysiologic features of a pair of half‐siblings who presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy and upper motor neuron signs.

ALS With and Without Upper Motor Neuron Signs: A Comparative Study Supporting the Gold Coast Criteria

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.

N-acetylgalactosamine positive perineuronal nets in the saccade-related-part of the cerebellar fastigial nucleus do not maintain saccade gain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Perineuronal nets (PNNs) accumulate around neurons near the end of developmental critical periods. PNNs are structures of the extracellular matrix which surround synaptic contacts and contain chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans.

Pupillometry Reveals the Role of Arousal in a Postexercise Benefit to Executive Function

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
A single bout of aerobic exercise improves executive function; however, the mechanism(s) underlying this improvement remains unclear. Here, we employed a 20-min bout of aerobic exercise, and at pre- and immediate post-exercise sessions examined executive

Gain control of saccadic eye movements is probabilistic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Saccades are rapid eye movements that orient the visual axis toward objects of interest to allow their processing by the central, highacuity retina. Our ability to collect visual information efficiently relies on saccadic accuracy, which is limited by a ...

A retinotopic attentional trace after saccadic eye movements: evidence from event-related potentials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Saccadic eye movements are a major source of disruption to visual stability, yet we experience little of this disruption. We can keep track of the same object across multiple saccades.
