Temporal sequence of hemispheric network activation during semantic processing: a functional network connectivity analysis.

29 Jun 2009 To explore the temporal sequence of, and the relationship between, the left and right hemispheres (LH and RH) during semantic memory (SM) processing we identified the neural networks involved in the performance of functional MRI semantic object ... Read more...


Memory and decision making in the frontal cortex during visual motion processing for smooth pursuit eye movements.

9 Jun 2009 Cortical motor areas are thought to contribute "higher-order processing," but what that processing might include is unknown. Previous studies of the smooth pursuit-related discharge of supplementary eye field (SEF) neurons have not distinguished ... Read more...


Biphasic activation of the mTOR pathway in the gustatory cortex is correlated with and necessary for taste learning.

8 Jun 2009 Different forms of memories and synaptic plasticity require synthesis of new proteins at the time of acquisition or immediately after. We are interested in the role of translation regulation in the cortex, the brain structure assumed to store ... Read more...
