Epilepsy is well-recognized as a disorder of brain networks. There is a growing body of
research to identify critical nodes within dynamic epileptic networks with the aim to target …

Cognition can be conceptualized as a set of algorithmic control functions whose real-time
deployment determines how an organism stores and uses information to guide thought and …

Attention is a core cognitive function that filters and selects behaviourally relevant
information in the environment. The cortical mapping of attentional systems identified two …

Abstract Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) seem to have difficulties looking
others in the eyes, but the substrate for this behavior is not well understood. The subcortical …

Spatial attention is discontinuous, sampling behaviorally relevant locations in theta-rhythmic
cycles (3–6 Hz). Underlying this rhythmic sampling are intrinsic theta oscillations in frontal …

Perception in ambiguous environments relies on the combination of sensory information
from various sources. Most associative and primary sensory cortical areas are involved in …

It is argued that during ongoing visual perception, the brain is generating top-down
predictions to facilitate, guide and constrain the processing of incoming sensory input. Here …

The very earliest stages of sensory processing have the potential to alter how we perceive
and respond to our environment. These initial processing circuits can incorporate subcortical …

Our ability to rapidly detect threats is thought to be subserved by a subcortical pathway that
quickly conveys visual information to the amygdala. This neural shortcut has been …

There is significant controversy over the existence and function of a direct subcortical visual
pathway to the amygdala. It is thought that this pathway rapidly transmits low spatial …
