Top-down control of visual attention by the prefrontal cortex. Functional specialization and long-range interactions

S Paneri, GG Gregoriou - Frontiers in neuroscience, 2017 - frontiersin.org
The ability to select information that is relevant to current behavioral goals is the hallmark of
voluntary attention and an essential part of our cognition. Attention tasks are a prime …

Interaction between dorsal and ventral processing streams: where, when and how?

LL Cloutman - Brain and language, 2013 - Elsevier
The execution of complex visual, auditory, and linguistic behaviors requires a dynamic
interplay between spatial ('where/how') and non-spatial ('what') information processed along …

Feature-based attention in the frontal eye field and area V4 during visual search

H Zhou, R Desimone - Neuron, 2011 - cell.com
When we search for a target in a crowded visual scene, we often use the distinguishing
features of the target, such as color or shape, to guide our attention and eye movements. To …

Subdivisions and connectional networks of the lateral prefrontal cortex in the macaque monkey

KS Saleem, B Miller, JL Price - Journal of Comparative …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Neuroanatomical studies have long indicated that corticocortical connections are organized
in networks that relate distinct sets of areas. Such networks have been emphasized by …

Task-specific signal transmission from prefrontal cortex in visual selective attention

Y Morishima, R Akaishi, Y Yamada, J Okuda… - Nature …, 2009 - nature.com
Our voluntary behaviors are thought to be controlled by top-down signals from the prefrontal

Neural basis of saccade target selection

JD Schall - Reviews in the Neurosciences, 1995 - degruyter.com
This article reviews what is currently known about how the brain selects targets for saccadic
eye movements. Saccade target selection is needed because primates can look at just one …

[HTML][HTML] What and where information in the caudate tail guides saccades to visual objects

S Yamamoto, IE Monosov, M Yasuda… - Journal of …, 2012 - Soc Neuroscience
We understand the world by making saccadic eye movements to various objects. However, it
is unclear how a saccade can be aimed at a particular object, because two kinds of visual …

Visual attention in the prefrontal cortex

J Martinez-Trujillo - Annual Review of Vision Science, 2022 - annualreviews.org
Voluntary attention selects behaviorally relevant signals for further processing while filtering
out distracter signals. Neural correlates of voluntary visual attention have been reported …

Stimulus selectivity in dorsal and ventral prefrontal cortex after training in working memory tasks

T Meyer, XL Qi, TR Stanford… - Journal of …, 2011 - Soc Neuroscience
