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 …

Sensory visual areas are involved in encoding information in visual short-term memory
(VSTM). Yet it remains unclear whether sensory visual cortex is a necessary component of …

Working memory (WM) supports future behavior by retaining perceptual information
obtained in the recent past. The present study tested the hypothesis that WM recodes …

A major pathological hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, is a
significant reduction in the white matter connecting the two cerebral hemispheres, as well as …

During binocular rivalry, conflicting images are presented one to each eye and perception
alternates stochastically between them. Despite stable percepts between alternations …

Neuroplasticity is maximal during development and declines in adulthood, especially for
sensory cortices. On the other hand, the motor and prefrontal cortices retain plasticity …

White matter (WM) functional activity has been reliably detected through functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI). Previous studies have primarily examined WM bundles as …

Working memory (WM) describes the dynamic process of maintenance and manipulation of
information over a certain time delay. Neuronally, WM recruits a distributed network of …

Background Recent studies indicate that both prefrontal and visual regions play critical roles
in visual working memory (VWM), with prefrontal regions mainly associated with executive …

The role of the early visual cortex in visual working memory (VWM) is a matter of current
debate. Neuroimaging studies have consistently shown that visual areas encode the content …
