The default mode network (DMN) is a set of widely distributed brain regions in the parietal,
temporal and frontal cortex. These regions often show reductions in activity during attention …

Semantic cognition refers to our ability to use, manipulate and generalize knowledge that is
acquired over the lifespan to support innumerable verbal and non-verbal behaviours. This …

Semantic control, the ability to selectively access and manipulate meaningful information on
the basis of context demands, is a critical component of semantic cognition. The precise …

This review article summarizes various functions of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
(DLPFC) that are related to language processing. To this end, its connectivity with the left …

The default mode network supports a variety of mental operations such as semantic
processing, episodic memory retrieval, mental time travel and mind-wandering, yet the …

Object concepts are critical for nearly all aspects of human cognition, from perception tasks
like object recognition, to understanding and producing language, to making meaningful …

Prior research has indicated that brain regions and networks that support semantic memory,
top-down and bottom-up attention, and cognitive control are all involved in divergent …

Built upon a wealth of neuroimaging, neurostimulation, and neuropsychology data, a recent
proposal set forth a framework termed controlled semantic cognition (CSC) to account for …

High-level cognitive constructs, such as creativity and intelligence, entail complex and
multiple processes, including cognitive control processes. Recent neurocognitive research …

Previous work has emphasized that cognitive functions in the human brain are organized
into large-scale networks. However, the mechanisms that allow these networks to …
