While major advances have been made in uncovering the neural processes underlying
perceptual representations, our grasp of how the brain gives rise to conceptual knowledge …

The capacity to process information in conceptual form is a fundamental aspect of human
cognition, yet little is known about how this type of information is encoded in the brain …

Recent research indicates that sensory and motor cortical areas play a significant role in the
neural representation of concepts. However, little is known about the overall architecture of …

Conceptual knowledge is central to cognitive abilities such as word comprehension.
Previous neuroimaging evidence indicates that concepts are at least partly composed of …

In this work we explore whether the patterns of brain activity associated with thinking about
concrete objects are dependent on stimulus presentation format, whether an object is …

The grounding of concepts in the sensorimotor brain systems is controversially discussed.
Grounded cognition models propose that concepts are represented in modality-specific …

Both embodied and symbolic accounts of conceptual organization would predict partial
sharing and partial differentiation between the neural activations seen for concepts activated …

Neuroimaging, neuropsychological, and psychophysical evidence indicate that concept
retrieval selectively engages specific sensory and motor brain systems involved in the …

The question of how the human brain represents conceptual knowledge has been debated
in many scientific fields. Brain imaging studies have shown that different spatial patterns of …

The neural representation of concepts is a focus of many cognitive neuroscience studies.
Prior works studying concept representation with neural imaging data have been largely …
