Open AccessBiomedical findings from NASA’s Project Mercury: a case series
The United States first sent humans into space during six flights of Project Mercury from May 1961 to May 1963. These flights were brief, with durations ranging from about 15 min to just over 34 h. A primary p...

The Behaving Human Neocortex as a Dynamic Network of Networks
The neocortex is arguably the most sophisticated structure within the mammalian brain. It is the largest brain structure in the human, and its properties endow us with qualities that are unique to our species....

Weight-Space Map** of fMRI Language Tasks
In the past several years, there has been tremendous growth in map** cortical activity using neuroimaging, including the ability to map multiple spatial scales simultaneously. Beyond delineating functional r...

If we compute faster, do we understand better?
Practitioners of cognitive science, “theoretical” neuroscience, and psychology have made less use of high-performance computing for testing theories than have those in many other areas of science. Why is this?...

Weight-Space Map** of fMRI Motor Tasks
In this report, we examine the notion that networks of neocortical activity exist simultaneously across different spatial scales. Our investigations concern human motor data obtained from six motor tasks using...

Computational and Neurobiological Features of a Network of Networks
We describe a “network of networks” model of cortical computation. The model is motivated by anatomical and dynamic features of modularity in the neocortex and it makes a number of predictions conc...

State-Dependent Sequencing and Learning
To investigate the relationship between sleep and cognition, we develop a computational model with neuromodulatory, sequencing and learning features. Our simulations show how specific and non-specific synaptic...
