DOI: 10.1037/rev0000347
Abstract: Early direction-selective neurons in the primary visual cortex are widely considered to be the main neural basis underlying motion perception even though motion perception can also rely on attentively tracking the position of objects. Because… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-025-08211-8
Abstract: The heart of goal-directed behavior organization is working memory. Recent studies have emphasized the critical role of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in working memory, highlighting elevated spiking levels in PFC neurons during working-memory delays. As… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00405.2024
Abstract: In mammalian visual system, direction-selective (DS) neurons prefer visual motion in a particular direction and are specialized for visual motion processing. In area V4 of the macaque, about 13% neurons are direction-selective and form clusters… read more here.

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01548
Abstract: Our sense of number rests on the activity of neurons that are tuned to the number of items and show great invariance across display formats and modalities. Whether numerosity coding becomes abstracted from local spatial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000006806
Abstract: Face perception is thought to be mediated by neural activity in the occipital and posterior temporal cortex.1,2 However, the face-selective neurons at the cellular level in these areas in humans have never been demonstrated. We… read more here.
