Modulation of the contrast response function by electrical microstimulation of the macaque frontal eye field.

24 Aug 2009 Spatial attention influences representations in visual cortical areas as well as perception. Some models predict a contrast gain, whereas others a response or activity gain when attention is directed to a contrast-varying stimulus. Recent evidence ... Read more...

Retinotopic organization of human ventral visual cortex.

24 Aug 2009 Functional magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown that human ventral visual cortex anterior to human visual area V4 contains two visual field maps, VO-1 and VO-2, that together form the ventral occipital (VO) cluster (Brewer et al., 2005). ... Read more...

A distinct representation of three-dimensional shape in macaque anterior intraparietal area: fast, metric, and coarse.

24 Aug 2009 Differences in the horizontal positions of retinal images--binocular disparity--provide important cues for three-dimensional object recognition and manipulation. We investigated the neural coding of three-dimensional shape defined by disparity in ... Read more...
