Incoming sensory information is sent to the brain along modality-specific channels
corresponding to the five senses. Each of these channels further parses the incoming …

▪ Abstract Binocular disparity provides the visual system with information concerning the
three-dimensional layout of the environment. Recent physiological studies in the primary …

The study of human learning is complicated by the myriad of processing elements involved
in conducting any behavioral task. In the case of visual perceptual learning, there has been …

We traced the cortical connections of the anterior intraparietal (AIP) area, which is known to
play a crucial role in visuomotor transformations for grasping. AIP displayed major …

Previous investigations of the neural code for complex object shape have focused on two-
dimensional pattern representation. This may be the primary mode for object vision given its …

Cells in the inferotemporal cortex (area TE) selectively respond to complex visual object
features and those that respond to similar features cluster in a columnar region elongated …

The extrastriate cortex of primates encompasses a substantial portion of the cerebral cortex
and is devoted to the higher order processing of visual signals and their dispatch to other …

We performed the first large-scale (n= 501), quantitative study of horizontal disparity tuning
in the middle temporal (MT) visual area of alert, fixating macaque monkeys. Using random …

In primates, neural mechanisms for controlling skilled hand actions primarily rely on
sensorimotor transformations. These transformations are mediated by circuits linking specific …

Our understanding of the neural underpinnings of perception is largely built upon studies
employing 2-dimensional (2D) planar images. Here we used slow event-related functional …
