Background Neuropsychology and human functional neuroimaging have implicated human
parietal cortex in numerical processing, and macaque electrophysiology has shown that …

Macaque electrophysiology has revealed neurons responsive to number in lateral (LIP) and
ventral (VIP) intraparietal areas. Recently, fMRI pattern recognition revealed information …

Human neuroimaging studies have increasingly converged on the possibility that the neural
representation of specific numbers may be decodable from brain activity, particularly in …

Neuroimaging studies in the last 20 years have tried to unravel the neural correlates of
number processing across formats in humans and non-human primates. Results point to the …

Humans and other animals base important decisions on estimates of number, and
intraparietal cortex is thought to provide a crucial substrate of this ability. However, it remains …

Behavioral evidence suggests that human adults have a single system for representing the
numerical magnitude of both symbolic numbers (eg, Arabic digits) and nonsymbolic number …

Humans and non-human primates share an elemental quantification system that resides in a
dedicated neural network in the parietal and frontal lobes. In this cortical network,'number …

Numerous studies have identified the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) as an area critically involved
in numerical processing. IPS neurons in macaques are tuned to a preferred numerosity …

How single neurons represent information about the magnitude of a stimulus remains
controversial. Neurons encoding purely sensory magnitude typically show monotonic …

Activation of the horizontal segment of the intraparietal sulcus (hIPS) has been observed in
various number-processing tasks, whether numbers were conveyed by symbolic numerals …
