Cognitive computational neuroscience

N Kriegeskorte, PK Douglas - Nature neuroscience, 2018 - nature.com
To learn how cognition is implemented in the brain, we must build computational models
that can perform cognitive tasks, and test such models with brain and behavioral …

The functional architecture of the ventral temporal cortex and its role in categorization

K Grill-Spector, KS Weiner - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2014 - nature.com
Visual categorization is thought to occur in the human ventral temporal cortex (VTC), but
how this categorization is achieved is still largely unknown. In this Review, we consider the …

The primacy of behavioral research for understanding the brain.

Y Niv - Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 - psycnet.apa.org
Understanding the brain requires us to answer both what the brain does, and how it does it.
Using a series of examples, I make the case that behavior is often more useful than …

Characterizing functional pathways of the human olfactory system

G Zhou, G Lane, SL Cooper, T Kahnt, C Zelano - elife, 2019 - elifesciences.org

areas have been intensively investigated for two decades, and this work has been guided by …

Are we face experts?

AW Young, AM Burton - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2018 - cell.com
According to a widely used theoretical perspective, our everyday experiences lead us to
become natural experts at perceiving and recognising human faces. However, there has …

Measuring and interpreting neuronal correlations

MR Cohen, A Kohn - Nature neuroscience, 2011 - nature.com
Mounting evidence suggests that understanding how the brain encodes information and
performs computations will require studying the correlations between neurons. The recent …
