The cortical visual system is almost universally thought to be segregated into two
anatomically and functionally distinct pathways: a ventral occipitotemporal pathway that …

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

Lateral prefrontal and posterior parietal cortical areas exhibit task-dependent activation
during working memory tasks in humans and monkeys. Neurons in these regions become …

Highlights•Beta (15–40 Hz) oscillations occur in motor cortex during motor and attention
tasks.•Current hypotheses on how beta oscillations are generated in vitro are reviewed …

The interactions between prefrontal cortex and other areas during working memory have
been studied for decades. Here we outline a conceptual framework describing interactions …

The primate visual system consists of a ventral stream, specialized for object recognition,
and a dorsal visual stream, which is crucial for spatial vision and actions. However, little is …

The central thalamus (CT) is a key component of the brain-wide network underlying arousal
regulation and sensory-motor integration during wakefulness in the mammalian brain …

Behavioral and neuropsychological research suggests that delayed actions rely on different
neural substrates than immediate actions; however, the specific brain areas implicated in the …

Humans and other primates possess a unique capacity to grasp and manipulate objects
skillfully, a facility pervasive in everyday life that has undoubtedly contributed to the success …

In primates, neuronal representations of objects are processed hierarchically in
occipitotemporal cortices. A “novel” feature of objects is thought to emerge and become …
