Since the original characterization of the ventral visual pathway, our knowledge of its
neuroanatomy, functional properties, and extrinsic targets has grown considerably. Here we …

Much of the visual cortex is organized into visual field maps: nearby neurons have receptive
fields at nearby locations in the image. Mammalian species generally have multiple visual …

Understanding the amazingly complex human cerebral cortex requires a map (or
parcellation) of its major subdivisions, known as cortical areas. Making an accurate areal …

The human visual system contains an array of topographically organized regions. Identifying
these regions in individual subjects is a powerful approach to group-level statistical analysis …

An integral part of human language is the capacity to extract meaning from spoken and
written words, but the precise relationship between brain representations of information …

Humans can see and name thousands of distinct object and action categories, so it is
unlikely that each category is represented in a distinct brain area. A more efficient scheme …

Noninvasively mapping the layout of cortical areas in humans is a continuing challenge for
neuroscience. We present a new method of mapping cortical areas based on myelin content …

A challenging goal in neuroscience is to be able to read out, or decode, mental content from
brain activity. Recent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have decoded …

Visual area V4 is a midtier cortical area in the ventral visual pathway. It is crucial for visual
object recognition and has been a focus of many studies on visual attention. However, there …

How is color represented by spatially distributed patterns of activity in visual cortex?
Functional magnetic resonance imaging responses to several stimulus colors were …
