Journal ArticleDOI
Object vision and spatial vision: two cortical pathways
TL;DR: Evidence is reviewed indicating that striate cortex in the monkey is the source of two multisynaptic corticocortical pathways, one of which enables the visual identification of objects and the other allows instead the visual location of objects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Visual Attention in the Human Cortex
TL;DR: Functional brain imaging studies reveal that, both in the absence and in the presence of visual stimulation, biasing signals due to selective attention can modulate neural activity in visual cortex in several ways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional MRI evidence for adult motor cortex plasticity during motor skill learning
Avi Karni,G. Meyer,G. Meyer,Peter Jezzard,Michelle M. Adams,Robert Turner,Leslie G. Ungerleider +6 more
TL;DR: A slowly evolving, long-term, experience-dependent reorganization of the adult Ml is suggested, which may underlie the acquisition and retention of the motor skill.
Journal ArticleDOI
'What' and 'where' in the human brain.
TL;DR: Findings from positron emission tomography activation studies have localized these pathways within the human brain, yielding insights into cortical hierarchies, specialization of function, and attentional mechanisms.
