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...


Inhibitory plasticity in a lateral band improves cortical detection of natural vocalizations.

9 Jun 2009 The interplay between excitation and inhibition in the auditory cortex is crucial for the processing of acoustic stimuli. However, the precise role that inhibition plays in the distributed cortical encoding of natural vocalizations has not been ... Read more...
