Medical advances in neonatology have improved the survival rate of premature infants, as
well as children who are born under difficult neurological conditions. As a result, the …

It is a common view that the intricate array of specialized domains in the ventral visual
pathway is innately prespecified. What this review postulates is that they are not. We explore …

Complex natural sounds, such as bird singing, people talking, or traffic noise, induce
decodable fMRI activation patterns in early visual cortex of sighted blindfolded participants …

Understanding the factors that determine if a person can successfully learn a novel sensory
skill is essential for understanding how the brain adapts to change, and for providing …

We review here studies with visual and auditory deprived/recovery populations to argue for
the need of a redefinition of the crucial role of unisensory-specific experiences during critical …

This book is about mental imagery and the important work it does in our mental life. It plays a
crucial role in the vast majority of our perceptual episodes. It also helps us understand many …

In this paper, we discuss the processes of racialisation on the example of biomedical
research. We argue that applying the concept of racialisation in biomedical research can be …

In congenital blindness (CB), tactile, and auditory information can be reinterpreted by the
brain to compensate for visual information through mechanisms of brain plasticity triggered …

Motor actions, such as reaching or grasping, can be decoded from fMRI activity of early
visual cortex (EVC) in sighted humans. This effect can depend on vision or visual imagery …

Congenital visual impairment may have a negative impact on spatial abilities and result in
severe delays in perceptual, social, motor, and cognitive skills across life span. Despite …
