Desflurane Selectively Suppresses Long-latency Cortical Neuronal Response to Flash in the Rat [PDF]
Background—The effect of inhalational anesthetics on sensory-evoked unit activity in the cerebral cortex has been controversial. Desflurane has desirable properties for in vivo neurophysiologic studies but its effect on cortical neuronal activity and ...

Domain Specificity in Visual Cortex [PDF]
We investigated the prevalence and specificity of category-selective regions in human visual cortex. In the broadest survey to date of category selectivity in visual cortex, 12 participants were scanned with functional magnetic resonance imaging while viewing scenes and 19 different object categories in a blocked-design experiment.

The human visual system differentially represents subjectively and objectively invisible stimuli.
The study of unconscious processing requires a measure of conscious awareness. Awareness measures can be either subjective (based on participant's report) or objective (based on perceptual performance).

Distinct causal influences of parietal versus frontal areas on human visual cortex: evidence from concurrent TMS-fMRI [PDF]
It has often been proposed that regions of the human parietal and/or frontal lobe may modulate activity in visual cortex, for example, during selective attention or saccade preparation.

The significance of memory in sensory cortex [PDF]
Early sensory cortex is typically investigated in response to sensory stimulation, masking the contribution of internal signals. Recently, van Kerkoerle and colleagues reported that attention and memory signals segregate from sensory signals within ...

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Contextual modulation of primary visual cortex by auditory signals [PDF]
Early visual cortex receives non-feedforward input from lateral and top-down connections (Muckli & Petro 2013 Curr. Opin. Neurobiol. 23, 195–201. (doi:10.1016/j.conb.2013.01.020)), including long-range projections from auditory areas.

Cultural specialization of visual cortex [PDF]
A growing body of evidence suggests culture influences how individuals perceive the world around them. This study investigates whether these cultural differences extend to a simple object viewing task and visual cortex by examining voxel pattern representations with multi-voxel pattern analysis (MVPA).

Designing and Delivering Effective Faculty Development With the Adult Learner in Mind
ABSTRACT University faculty are busy professionals tasked with many different responsibilities. While they certainly care about student success, their expertise is generally discipline‐specific and strategies for effective and engaging teaching are developed in the classroom along the way.

High-level visual prediction errors in early visual cortex.
Perception is shaped by both incoming sensory input and expectations derived from our prior knowledge. Numerous studies have shown stronger neural activity for surprising inputs, suggestive of predictive processing.
