Since the original characterization of the ventral visual pathway, our knowledge of its
neuroanatomy, functional properties, and extrinsic targets has grown considerably. Here we …

Over the last decade, there has been an increasing body of work that explores whether
sensory and motor information is a necessary part of semantic representation and …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can provide maps of brain activation with
millimeter spatial resolution but is limited in its temporal resolution to the order of seconds …

Recent neurobiological studies have begun to reveal the cognitive and neural coding
mechanisms that underlie declarative memory—our ability to recollect everyday events and …

The hallmark of medial temporal lobe amnesia is a loss of episodic memory such that
patients fail to remember new events that are set in an autobiographical context (an …

The one-trial object recognition task involves memory of a familiar object in parallel with the
detection and encoding of a novel object. It provides the basis for the study of a wide range …

A significant body of research in cognitive neuroscience is aimed at understanding how
object concepts are represented in the human brain. However, it remains unknown whether …

Cognitive Neuroscience of Language provides an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and
pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in this exciting field. It …

The authors model the neural mechanisms underlying spatial cognition, integrating
neuronal systems and behavioral data, and address the relationships between long-term …

Much progress has been made by cognitive neuroscientists in understanding the separate
roles of the medial temporal and prefrontal lobes in memory, but the way in which these …
