Sensory information undergoes extensive associative elaboration and attentional
modulation as it becomes incorporated into the texture of cognition. This process occurs …

An analysis of response latencies shows that when an image is presented to the visual
system, neuronal activity is rapidly routed to a large number of visual areas. However, the …

Most of our knowledge about the functional organization of neuronal systems is based on
the analysis of the firing patterns of individual neurons that have been recorded one by one …

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 …

This study provides a time frame for the initial trajectory of activation flow along the dorsal
and ventral visual processing streams and for the initial activation of prefrontal cortex in the …

Our visual system can process information at both conscious and unconscious levels.
Understanding the factors that control whether a stimulus reaches our awareness, and the …

This is the first book to examine in-depth the crucial role of the speed of information
processing in the brain in determining reading fluency in both normal and dyslexic readers …

Singer, 1994). The basis for this argument is that it is necessary to “tag” each visual neuron
to signify the object to which its activity relates. Each neuron therefore has to carry two …

Corticocortical fibers constitute the most prominent system of connections in the mammalian
brain, since they are believed to make up> 95% of the white matter underlying the cortex (3) …
