Abstract: &NA; The human brain integrates hemifield‐split visual information via interhemispheric transfer. The degree to which neural circuits involved in this process behave differently during word recognition as compared to object recognition is not known. Evidence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2020.10.040
Abstract: The visual word form area (VWFA) has been consistently identified as a crucial structure in visual word processing. Nevertheless, it is controversial whether the VWFA represents external visual information (e.g., case information) of visual words.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-63962-0
Abstract: Auditory working memory impairments feature prominently in schizophrenia. However, the existence of altered and perhaps compensatory neural dynamics, sub-serving auditory working memory, remains largely unexplored. We compared the dynamics of induced high gamma power (iHGP)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.11.10.515773
Abstract: In expert readers, a brain region known as the visual word form area (VWFA) is highly sensitive to written words, exhibiting a posterior-to-anterior gradient of increasing sensitivity to orthographic stimuli whose statistics match those of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2018.00465
Abstract: The adult brain contains cortical areas thought to be specialized for the analysis of numbers (the putative number form area, NFA) and letters (the visual word form area, VWFA). Although functional development of the VWFA… read more here.
