[HTML][HTML] Intracortical recordings reveal vision-to-action cortical gradients driving human exogenous attention
Exogenous attention, the process that makes external salient stimuli pop-out of a visual
scene, is essential for survival. How attention-capturing events modulate human brain …

Top-down attention switches coupling between low-level and high-level areas of human visual cortex
N Al-Aidroos, CP Said… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
Top-down attention is an essential cognitive ability, allowing our finite brains to process
complex natural environments by prioritizing information relevant to our goals. Previous …

[HTML][HTML] The human endogenous attentional control network includes a ventro-temporal cortical node
Endogenous attention is the cognitive function that selects the relevant pieces of sensory
information to achieve goals and it is known to be controlled by dorsal fronto-parietal brain …

Cortical reactivations of recent sensory experiences predict bidirectional network changes during learning
Salient experiences are often relived in the mind. Human neuroimaging studies suggest that
such experiences drive activity patterns in visual association cortex that are subsequently …

[HTML][HTML] Selective attention involves a feature-specific sequential release from inhibitory gating
Selective attention is a fundamental cognitive mechanism that allows our brain to
preferentially process relevant sensory information, while filtering out distracting information …

[HTML][HTML] Neural mechanisms of sustained attention are rhythmic
Classic models of attention suggest that sustained neural firing constitutes a neural correlate
of sustained attention. However, recent evidence indicates that behavioral performance …

Simultaneous multi-area recordings suggest that attention improves performance by reshaping stimulus representations
Visual attention dramatically improves individuals' ability to see and modulates the
responses of neurons in every known visual and oculomotor area, but whether such …

Functional fractionation of the stimulus-driven attention network
A novel, salient event in the environment powerfully captures attention. This stimulus-driven
attentional capture not only includes orienting of attention toward the event, but also an …

A central role for the lateral prefrontal cortex in goal-directed and stimulus-driven attention
Attention is the process that selects which sensory information is preferentially processed
and ultimately reaches our awareness. Attention, however, is not a unitary process; it can be …

[HTML][HTML] Spatial attention enhances network, cellular and subthreshold responses in mouse visual cortex
Internal brain states strongly modulate sensory processing during behaviour. Studies of
visual processing in primates show that attention to space selectively improves behavioural …
