Opposite biases in salience-based selection for the left and right posterior parietal cortex

C Mevorach, GW Humphreys, L Shalev - Nature neuroscience, 2006 - nature.com
Visual selection is determined in part by the saliency of stimuli. We assessed the brain
mechanisms determining attentional responses to saliency. Repetitive transcranial magnetic …
