Lipid pathway alterations in Parkinson's disease primary visual cortex. [PDF]
BackgroundWe present a lipidomics analysis of human Parkinson's disease tissues. We have focused on the primary visual cortex, a region that is devoid of pathological changes and Lewy bodies; and two additional regions, the amygdala and anterior ...

Attention: Control in the Visual Cortex [PDF]
A recent study in which the human visual cortex was directly stimulated to create visual percepts has shown that visual spatial attention can act directly on neural activity in sensory cortex without involving attentional modulation of subcortical visual inputs.

Visual field map clusters in human frontoparietal cortex
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.

Surface-Based Analyses of Anatomical Properties of the Visual Cortex in Macular Degeneration. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:Macular degeneration (MD) can cause a central visual field defect. In a previous study, we found volumetric reductions along the entire visual pathways of MD patients, possibly indicating degeneration of inactive neuronal tissue.

Why do children with autism spectrum disorder have abnormal visual perception?
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with severe impairment in social functioning. Visual information processing provides nonverbal cues that support social interactions. ASD children exhibit abnormalities in visual orientation, continuous visual

The role of temporal cortex in the control of attention [PDF]
Attention is an indispensable component of active vision. Contrary to the widely accepted notion that temporal cortex processing primarily focusses on passive object recognition, a series of very recent studies emphasize the role of temporal cortex structures, specifically the superior temporal sulcus (STS) and inferotemporal (IT) cortex, in guiding ...

Visual Cortex: Seeing Motion [PDF]
AbstractHow does primary visual cortex respond to moving images? While much is known about responses of single neurons to such stimuli, responses at the level of maps are only now beginning to be understood.

Multi-voxel decoding and the topography of maintained information during visual working memory
The ability to maintain representations in the absence of external sensory stimulation, such as in working memory, is critical for guiding human behavior.

Paroxetine can improve primary visual cortex activity in a high-risk mouse model of schizophrenia
Visual cortex functional deficits can be observed in schizophrenia patients and in individuals at high risk of schizophrenia. However, to date, few studies have investigated methods to improve these functional deficits.
