Attention is a core property of all perceptual and cognitive operations. Given limited capacity
to process competing options, attentional mechanisms select, modulate, and sustain focus …

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 …

Philosopher Ned Block argues in this book that there is a" joint in nature" between
perception and cognition and that by exploring the nature of that joint, one can solve …

Traversing sensory environments requires keeping relevant information in mind while
simultaneously processing new inputs. Visual information is kept in working memory via …

Numerosity, the set size of a group of items, is processed by the association cortex, but
certain aspects mirror the properties of primary senses. Sensory cortices contain …

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 …

Orienting of spatial attention is a family of phylogenetically old mechanisms developed to
select information for further processing. Information can be selected via top-down or …

Spatial neglect is a syndrome following stroke manifesting attentional deficits in perceiving
and responding to stimuli in the contralesional field. We examined brain network integrity in …

The syndrome of spatial neglect is typically associated with focal injury to the
temporoparietal or ventral frontal cortex. This syndrome shows spontaneous partial …

Spatial selective attention is widely considered to be right hemisphere dominant. Previous
functional magnetic resonance imaging studies, however, have reported bilateral blood …
