Background: Agenesis of the corpus callosum (AgCC) involves congenital absence of all or
part of the corpus callosum. Because the disorder can only be firmly diagnosed via …

The brain's ability to bind incoming auditory and visual stimuli depends critically on the
temporal structure of this information. Specifically, there exists a temporal window of …

Attending to a location in space significantly improves stimulus perception at that location.
Everyday experience requires the deployment of attention to multiple objects at different …

In stimulus matching tasks requiring discrimination of two unilaterally or bilaterally presented
stimuli (Dimond paradigm), a well established intrahemispheric processing bottleneck …

Degradation of white matter fibers can affect the transmission of signals in brain circuits that
normally enable integration of highly lateralized visual and motor processes. Here, we used …

Interaction between the cerebral hemispheres may allow both hemispheres to contribute
their processing resources in order to cope efficiently with complex tasks [Banich, M.(1998) …

In 1969 Joseph Bogen, a colleague of Roger Sperry and the neurosurgeon who performed
commissurotomy on Sperry's “split-brain” study participants, wrote an article subtitled “The …

In naturalistic settings, observers often have to monitor multiple objects dispersed
throughout the visual scene. However, the degree to which spatial attention can be divided …

A salient feature of motor and sensory circuits in the brain is their contralateral hemispheric
bias—a feature that might play a role in integration and learning of sensorimotor skills. In the …

Performing a task across the left and right visual hemifields results in better performance
than in a within-hemifield version of the task, termed the different-hemifield advantage …
