Visual categorization and the parietal cortex [PDF]
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012 The primate brain is adept at rapidly grouping items and events into functional classes, or categories, in order to recognize the significance of stimuli and guide behavior. Higher cognitive functions have traditionally been considered the domain of frontal areas.

Organization of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus in the mouse [PDF]
, 2017 The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus is the principal conduit for visual information from retina to visual cortex. Viewed initially as a simple relay, recent studies in the mouse reveal far greater complexity in the way input from

Neural Pathways Conveying Novisual Information to the Visual Cortex
Neural Plasticity, 2013 The visual cortex has been traditionally considered as a stimulus-driven, unimodal system with a hierarchical organization. However, recent animal and human studies have shown that the visual cortex responds to non-visual stimuli, especially in ...

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021 Patients treated for bilateral congenital cataracts provide a unique model to test the role of early visual input in shaping the development of the human cortex. Previous studies showed that brief early visual deprivation triggers long-lasting changes in

Preparatory attention in visual cortex [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2017 Top‐down attention is the mechanism that allows us to selectively process goal‐relevant aspects of a scene while ignoring irrelevant aspects. A large body of research has characterized the effects of attention on neural activity evoked by a visual stimulus. However, attention also includes a preparatory phase before stimulus onset in which the attended

, 2008 The visual world is imaged on the retinas of our eyes. However, "seeing"' is not a result of neural functions within the eyes but rather a result of what the brain does with those images.

Visual Cortex: Suppression by Depression? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2002 The response of a neuron in the visual cortex to an oriented light bar is strongly reduced by concurrent presentation of a stimulus with a different orientation. New data suggest this 'cross-orientation suppression' is caused, not by intracortical inhibition, but by rapid depression of thalamocortical synapses.

Visual feedback alters force control and functional activity in the visuomotor network after stroke. [PDF]
, 2018 Modulating visual feedback may be a viable option to improve motor function after stroke, but the neurophysiological basis for this improvement is not clear.

Audiovisual temporal correspondence modulates human multisensory superior temporal sulcus plus primary sensory cortices [PDF]
, 2007 The brain should integrate related but not unrelated information from different senses. Temporal patterning of inputs to different modalities may provide critical information about whether those inputs are related or not.

Visual field map clusters in human frontoparietal cortex
eLife, 2017 The visual neurosciences have made enormous progress in recent decades, in part because of the ability to drive visual areas by their sensory inputs, allowing researchers to define visual areas reliably across individuals and across species.
