Human visual performance changes with visual field location. It is best at the center of gaze
and declines with eccentricity, and also varies markedly with polar angle. These perceptual …

We summarize the various strands of research on peripheral vision and relate them to
theories of form perception. After a historical overview, we describe quantifications of the …

Arrays of electrodes for recording and stimulating the brain are used throughout clinical
medicine and basic neuroscience research, yet are unable to sample large areas of the …

Temporal fluctuations in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) have been
profitably used to study brain activity and connectivity for over two decades. Unfortunately …

Theoretical neuroscience provides a quantitative basis for describing what nervous systems
do, determining how they function, and uncovering the general principles by which they …

We quantified the spatial distribution of presumed ganglion cells and displaced amacrine
cells in unstained whole mounts of six young normal human retinas whose photoreceptor …

We report on surface-based analyses that enhance our understanding of human cortical
organization, including its convolutions and its parcellation into many distinct areas. The …

The borders of human visual areas V1, V2, VP, V3, and V4 were precisely and noninvasively
determined. Functional magnetic resonance images were recorded during phase-encoded …

This long-awaited work by prominent Harvard psychologist Stephen Kosslyn integrates a
twenty-year research program on the nature of high-level vision and mental imagery. Image …

Many structural features of the mammalian central nervous system can be explained by a
morphogenetic mechanism that involves mechanical tension along axons, dendrites and …
