The functional neuroanatomy of human face perception

K Grill-Spector, KS Weiner, K Kay… - Annual review of vision …, 2017 - annualreviews.org
Face perception is critical for normal social functioning and is mediated by a network of
regions in the ventral visual stream. In this review, we describe recent neuroimaging findings …

Lateralization, functional specialization, and dysfunction of attentional networks

P Mengotti, AS Käsbauer, GR Fink, S Vossel - Cortex, 2020 - Elsevier
The present review covers the latest findings on the lateralization of the dorsal and ventral
attention systems, their functional specialization, and their clinical relevance for stroke …

Electrical stimulation of the left and right human fusiform gyrus causes different effects in conscious face perception

V Rangarajan, D Hermes, BL Foster… - Journal of …, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
Neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies across species have confirmed bilateral face-
selective responses in the ventral temporal cortex (VTC) and prosopagnosia is reported in …

Occipital alpha activity during stimulus processing gates the information flow to object-selective cortex

JM Zumer, R Scheeringa, JM Schoffelen, DG Norris… - PLoS …, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Given the limited processing capabilities of the sensory system, it is essential that attended
information is gated to downstream areas, whereas unattended information is blocked …

Uncovering the neural magnitude and spatio-temporal dynamics of natural image categorization in a fast visual stream

TL Retter, B Rossion - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
Perceptual categorization occurs rapidly under natural viewing conditions. Yet, the neural
spatio-temporal dynamics of category-selective processes to single-glanced, natural (ie …

Dynamic changes in phase-amplitude coupling facilitate spatial attention control in fronto-parietal cortex

SM Szczepanski, NE Crone, RA Kuperman… - PLoS …, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Attention is a core cognitive mechanism that allows the brain to allocate limited resources
depending on current task demands. A number of frontal and posterior parietal cortical …

Task context impacts visual object processing differentially across the cortex

A Harel, DJ Kravitz, CI Baker - Proceedings of the National …, 2014 - National Acad Sciences
Perception reflects an integration of “bottom-up”(sensory-driven) and “top-down”(internally
generated) signals. Although models of visual processing often emphasize the central role …

Local neuronal relational structures underlying the contents of human conscious experience

R Malach - Neuroscience of consciousness, 2021 - academic.oup.com
While most theories of consciousness posit some kind of dependence on global network
activities, I consider here an alternative, localist perspective—in which localized cortical …

Four-dimensional maps of the human somatosensory system

P Avanzini, RO Abdollahi, I Sartori… - Proceedings of the …, 2016 - National Acad Sciences
A fine-grained description of the spatiotemporal dynamics of human brain activity is a major

Attention differentially modulates the amplitude of resonance frequencies in the visual cortex

R Gulbinaite, DHM Roozendaal, R VanRullen - NeuroImage, 2019 - Elsevier
Rhythmic visual stimuli (flicker) elicit rhythmic brain responses at the frequency of the
stimulus, and attention generally enhances these oscillatory brain responses (steady state …
