Callosal connections of primary visual cortex predict the spatial spreading of binocular rivalry across the visual hemifields [PDF]
, 2011 In binocular rivalry, presentation of different images to the separate eyes leads to conscious perception alternating between the two possible interpretations every few seconds. During perceptual transitions, a stimulus emerging into dominance can spread

Studying the Role of Human Parietal Cortex in Visuospatial Attention with Concurrent TMS-fMRI [PDF]
, 2010 Combining transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with concurrent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allows study of how local brain stimulation may causally affect activity in remote brain regions.

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.

Lipid pathway alterations in Parkinson's disease primary visual cortex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 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 ...

The primary visual cortex creates a bottom-up saliency map [PDF]
, 2005 It has been proposed that the primary visual cortex (V1) creates a saliency map using autonomous intra-cortical mechanisms. This saliency of a visual location describes the location's ability to attract attention without top-down factors.

Connectivity changes underlying neurofeedback training of visual cortex activity.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Neurofeedback based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a new approach that allows training of voluntary control over regionally specific brain activity.

Primary visual cortex activity along the apparent-motion trace reflects illusory perception [PDF]
, 2005 The illusion of apparent motion can be induced when visual stimuli are successively presented at different locations. It has been shown in previous studies that motion-sensitive regions in extrastriate cortex are relevant for the processing of apparent ...

Multi-voxel decoding and the topography of maintained information during visual working memory
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016 The ability to maintain representations in the absence of external sensory stimulation, such as in working memory, is critical for guiding human behavior.

Why do children with autism spectrum disorder have abnormal visual perception?
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2023 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

Why does brain damage impair memory? A connectionist model of object recognition memory in perirhinal cortex [PDF]
, 2006 Object recognition is the canonical test of declarative memory, the type of memory putatively impaired after damage to the temporal lobes. Studies of object recognition memory have helped elucidate the anatomical structures involved in declarative memory,
