Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of face inversion on activity in human neural systems for face and object perception.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the failure of face Perception systems with inverted faces leads to the recruitment of processing resources in object perception systems, but this failure is not reflected by altered activity in face perception systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging brain plasticity during motor skill learning.

TL;DR: Recent findings suggest that the learning of sequential finger movements produces a slowly evolving reorganization within primary motor cortex (M1) over the course of weeks and this change in M1 follows more dynamic, rapid changes in the cerebellum, striatum, and other motor-related cortical areas over the Course of days.
Journal ArticleDOI

Connections of Inferior Temporal Areas TEO and TE with Parietal and Frontal Cortex in Macaque Monkeys

TL;DR: Inferior temporal areas TEO and TE were injected with WGA-HRP and 3H-AA, respectively, or vice versa, in 1-week-old infant and 3-4-year-old adult monkeys (Macaca mulatta), the results indicated that whereas TEO has more extensive connections with parietal areas, TE has more comprehensive connections with prefrontal areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contour, color and shape analysis beyond the striate cortex.

TL;DR: The results suggest that within the areas of the occipito-temporal pathway, many different stimulus qualities are processed in parallel, but the type of analysis may become more global at each stage of processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distributed Neural Systems for the Generation of Visual Images

TL;DR: The results suggest that content-related activation during imagery in visual extrastriate cortex may be implemented by "top-down" mechanisms in parietal and frontal cortex that mediate the retrieval of face and object representations from long-term memory and their maintenance through visual imagery.
