Sleep researchers in different disciplines disagree about how fully dreaming can be
explained in terms of brain physiology. Debate has focused on whether REM sleep …

spanning from comparative neurology to experimental psychology and neurophysiology to …

This review yields numerous conclusions.(1) Both unit recording and behavioral studies find
that current activates neurons (ie, cell bodies and axons) directly according to the square of …

A scheme for the cortical control of saccadic eye movements is proposed based partly on
defects revealed by specific test paradigms in human with discrete lesions. Three different …

The issue of the biological origin of consciousness is linked to that of its function. One source
of evidence in this regard is the contrast between the types of information that are and are …

Two eye fields have been identified in the frontal lobes of primates: one is situated
dorsomedially within the frontal cortex and will be referred to as the eye field within the …

We used intracortical microstimulation to investigate the lateral premotor cortex and
neighboring areas in 14 hemispheres of owl monkeys, focusing on the somatotopic …

There are several eye fields in the primate frontal cortex. The number and location of these
oculomotor control zones remain controversial, especially in the human brain. In the …

That frontal cortex is involved in visually guided behavior has been known for over a century.
Since the pioneering work of Ferrier, several areas in frontal cortex have been identified as …

We studied the effective spread of lidocaine to inactivate neural tissue in the frontal cortex of
the rhesus monkey. Injections of 2% lidocaine at 4 μl/min were made while units were …
