Cortical processing of visual information requires that information be exchanged between
neurons coding for distant regions in the visual field. It is argued that feedback connections …

The results of a previous study [Hupé et al.(1998) Nature, 394: 784–787] led us to conclude
that feedback connections are important for differentiating a figure from the background …

Distributed neural population spiking patterns in macaque inferior temporal (IT) cortex that
support core object recognition require additional time to develop for specific," late-solved" …

Feedback connections are prevalent throughout the cerebral cortex, yet their function
remains poorly understood. Previous studies in anesthetized monkeys found that …

When stimulus information enters the visual cortex, it is rapidly processed for identification.
However, sometimes the processing of the stimulus is inadequate and the subject fails to …

Key points The present study showed that anodal and cathodal transcranial direct current
stimulation (tDCS) can respectively increase and decrease the amplitude of visually evoked …

Horizontal connections in the primary visual cortex of carnivores, ungulates and primates
organize on a near-regular lattice. Given the similar length scale for the regularity found in …

In the primary visual cortex, neurons with similar response preferences are grouped into
domains forming continuous maps of stimulus orientation and direction of movement. These …

Neurons in the primary visual cortex receive subliminal information originating from the
periphery of their receptive fields (RF) through a variety of cortical connections. In the cat …

The placement of monocular laser lesions in the adult cat retina produces a lesion projection
zone (LPZ) in primary visual cortex (V1) in which the majority of neurons have a normally …
