The division of cortical visual processing into distinct dorsal and ventral streams is a key
framework that has guided visual neuroscience. The characterization of the ventral stream …

Our understanding of the functions of motor system evolved remarkably in the last 20 years.
This is the consequence not only of an increase in the amount of data on this system but …

There are two radically different views on the functional role of the dorsal visual stream. One
considers it as a system involved in space perception. The other is of a system that codes …

Surround modulation (SM) is a fundamental property of sensory neurons in many species
and sensory modalities. SM is the ability of stimuli in the surround of a neuron's receptive …

Understanding the long association pathways that convey cortical connections is a critical
step in exploring the anatomic substrates of cognition in health and disease. Diffusion tensor …

The primary visual cortex (area 17 or V1) is not thought to receive input from nonvisual
extrastriate cortical areas. However, this has yet to be shown to be the case using sensitive …

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

A region in human lateral occipital cortex (the'extrastriate body area'or EBA) has been
implicated in the perception of body parts. Here we report functional magnetic resonance …

À l'évidence, faire quelque chose et imaginer le faire ne reviennent pas au même. Et
pourtant! Il se pourrait bien que, pour notre cerveau, la pensée et l'action soient une seule et …

While multisensory integration is thought to occur in higher hierarchical cortical areas, recent
studies in man and monkey have revealed plurisensory modulations of activity in areas …
