Task modulates the orthographic and phonological representations in the bilateral ventral Occipitotemporal cortex
As a key area in word reading, the left ventral occipitotemporal cortex is proposed for abstract orthographic processing, and its middle part has...

The Role of Occipitotemporal Network for Speed-Reading: An fMRI Study
The activity of occipitotemporal regions involved in linguistic reading processes, such as the ventral occipitotemporal cortex (vOT), is believed to...

Direct comparison of contralateral bias and face/scene selectivity in human occipitotemporal cortex
Human visual cortex is organised broadly according to two major principles: retinotopy (the spatial map** of the retina in cortex) and...
-
Anatomy and physiology of word-selective visual cortex: from visual features to lexical processing
Over the past 2 decades, researchers have tried to uncover how the human brain can extract linguistic information from a sequence of visual symbols....

Inflammation and Brain Structure in Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Neurodegenerative Disorders: a Mendelian Randomization Study
Previous in vitro and post-mortem studies have reported the role of inflammation in neurodegenerative disorders. However, the association between...

Face-Specific Activity in the Ventral Stream Visual Cortex Linked to Conscious Face Perception
When presented with visual stimuli of face images, the ventral stream visual cortex of the human brain exhibits face-specific activity that is...

Neural interactions in occipitotemporal cortex during basic human movement perception by dynamic causal modeling
Action recognition is an essential component of our daily life. The occipitotemporal cortex (OTC) is an important area in human movement perception....

Gradients of neurotransmitter receptor expression in the macaque cortex
Dynamics and functions of neural circuits depend on interactions mediated by receptors. Therefore, a comprehensive map of receptor organization...

Development and Developmental Disorders of the Cerebral Cortex
The cerebral cortex can be divided into a large isocortex, a much smaller allocortex (the hippocampal formation and the olfactory cortex), and a...

Doublecortin-Expressing Neurons in Human Cerebral Cortex Layer II and Amygdala from Infancy to 100 Years Old
A cohort of morphologically heterogenous doublecortin immunoreactive (DCX +) “immature neurons” has been identified in the cerebral cortex largely...
-
Prefrontal Cortex and Working Memory
Working memory has been described as a system that includes mechanisms for temporarily maintaining information as well as manipulating and processing...
-
On the relationship between maps and domains in inferotemporal cortex
How does the brain encode information about the environment? Decades of research have led to the pervasive notion that the object-processing pathway...

Structure and function of neural circuit related to gloss perception in the macaque inferior temporal cortex: a case report
The inferior temporal (IT) cortex of the macaque monkey plays a pivotal role in the visual recognition of objects. In the IT cortex, a...

Neural responses to facial attractiveness in the judgments of moral goodness and moral beauty
The judgments of moral goodness and moral beauty objectively refer to the perception and evaluation of moral traits, which are generally influenced...
-
The angular gyrus serves as an interface between the non-lexical reading network and the semantic system: evidence from dynamic causal modeling
Understanding encoded language, such as written words, requires multiple cognitive processes that act in a parallel and interactive fashion. These...

Case report of a patient with unclassified tauopathy with molecular and neuropathological features of both progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration
Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) are distinct clinicopathological subtypes of frontotemporal lobar...

Assigning a social status from face adornments: an fMRI study
For at least 150,000 years, the human body has been culturally modified by the wearing of personal ornaments and probably by painting with red...

Brain Activity of Professional Dancers During Audiovisual Stimuli Exposure: A Systematic Review
Many studies have shown the effect of dance to the brain. It seems that long-term practice modulates brain plasticity and visuomotor skills, as it...
-
One object, two networks? Assessing the relationship between the face and body-selective regions in the primate visual system
Faces and bodies are often treated as distinct categories that are processed separately by face- and body-selective brain regions in the primate...

The Mouse Cerebral Cortex
The cerebral cortex is the hierarchically highest unit of the mammalian brain. The entire afferent sensory information (somatosensory, visual,...
