Visual categorization is thought to occur in the human ventral temporal cortex (VTC), but
how this categorization is achieved is still largely unknown. In this Review, we consider the …

Human fMRI signals exhibit a spatial patterning that contains detailed information about a
person's mental states. Using classifiers it is possible to access this information and study …

Abstract In 1970 the Boulder Committee described the basic principles of the development
of the CNS, derived from observations on the human embryonic cerebrum. Since then …

Human MRI scanners at ultra-high magnetic field strengths of 7 T and higher are
increasingly available to the neuroscience community. A key advantage brought by ultra …

The surface area of human primary visual cortex (V1) varies substantially between
individuals for unknown reasons. We found that this variability was strongly and negatively …

The objective of this review is to examine and evaluate recent findings on cognitive
functioning (in particular imagery processes) in individuals with congenital visual …

In nonhuman primates (NHPs), secondary visual cortex (V2) is composed of repeating
columnar stripes, which are evident in histological variations of cytochrome oxidase (CO) …

It is important to understand the balance between cortical plasticity and stability in various
systems and across spatial scales in the adult brain. Here we review studies of adult …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at high magnetic fields has made it possible
to investigate the columnar organization of the human brain in vivo with high degrees of …

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), which measures the
spontaneous fluctuations in the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal, is …
