The anterior insular cortex (AIC) is implicated in a wide range of conditions and behaviours,
from bowel distension and orgasm, to cigarette craving and maternal love, to decision …

Functional neuroimaging studies have started unravelling unexpected functional attributes
for the posteromedial portion of the parietal lobe, the precuneus. This cortical area has …

With the advent of modern cognitive neuroscience and new tools of studying the human
brain" live," music as a highly complex, temporally ordered and rule-based sensory …

Positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
have been extensively used to explore the functional neuroanatomy of cognitive functions …

Precuneus responds to a wide range of cognitive processes. Here, we examined how the
patterns of resting state connectivity may define functional subregions in the precuneus …

Although attention is distributed across time as well as space, the temporal allocation of
attention has been less well researched than its spatial counterpart. A temporal analog of …

Research on how the brain processes music is emerging as a rich and stimulating area of
investigation of perception, memory, emotion, and performance. Results emanating from …

The discovery of audiovisual mirror neurons in monkeys gave rise to the hypothesis that
premotor areas are inherently involved not only when observing actions but also when …

A model of awareness based on interoceptive salience is described, which has an
endogenous time base that might provide a basis for the human capacity to perceive and …

The aim of the present study was the investigation of neural correlates of music processing
with fMRI. Chord sequences were presented to the participants, infrequently containing …
