Influence of perceived egocentric coordinates on the subjective visual vertical.

19 Jun 2009 The majority of previous studies which have explored the mechanisms underlying perception of the direction of gravity in static roll tilt have proposed that the tendency to estimate the subjective visual vertical (SVV) as tilted towards body tilt ...

Visuomotor transformation for interception: catching while fixating.

17 Jun 2009 Catching a ball involves a dynamic transformation of visual information about ball motion into motor commands for moving the hand to the right place at the right time. We previously formulated a neural model for this transformation to account for ...

The plasticity of near space: evidence for contraction.

15 Jun 2009 The distinction between near space and the space farther away has been well established, as has the relation of this distinction to arm length. Recent studies provide evidence for the plasticity of near space, showing that it is possible to expand ...

A new touchscreen test of pattern separation: effect of hippocampal lesions.

15 Jun 2009 Researchers are becoming increasingly interested in the role of the hippocampus in pattern separation, a process which keeps items distinct in memory. In this study, we develop and test a new automated touchscreen-based method for studying pattern ...

The parietal association cortex of the rat.

14 Jun 2009 Spatial cognition is a complex higher function in mammals and is involved in a variety of tasks that can be explored in the laboratory. In this review we will discuss the role of the posterior parietal/anteromedial cortex of rodents, also known as ...

What is remembered? Role of attention on the encoding and retrieval of hippocampal representations.

13 Jun 2009 The hippocampus is critically involved in storing explicit memory such as memory for space. A defining feature of explicit memory storage is that it requires attention both for encoding and retrieval. Whereas, a great deal is now known about the ...

Neuroanatomical substrate of visuospatial and visuoperceptual impairment in Parkinson's disease.

13 Jun 2009 To determine magnetic resonance imaging patterns of gray matter (GM) atrophy underlying visuospatial and visuoperceptual impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD), we applied voxel-based morphometry to 36 nondemented PD patients and correlated their ...

The intrinsic value of visual information affects saccade velocities.

12 Jun 2009 Let us assume that the purpose of any movement is to position our body in a more advantageous or rewarding state. For example, we might make a saccade to foveate an image because our brain assigns an intrinsic value to the information that it ...

Awake replay of remote experiences in the hippocampus.

12 Jun 2009 Hippocampal replay is thought to be essential for the consolidation of event memories in hippocampal-neocortical networks. Replay is present during both sleep and waking behavior, but although sleep replay involves the reactivation of stored ...
