A probabilistic atlas of the human thalamic nuclei combining ex vivo MRI and histology
(NeuroImage, 2018)
The human thalamus is a brain structure that comprises numerous, highly specific nuclei. Since these nuclei are known to have different functions and to be connected to different areas of the cerebral cortex, it is of great ...
White matter microstructure of attentional networks predicts attention and consciousness functional interactions
(Brain Structure and Function, 2018)
Attention is considered as one of the pre-requisites of conscious perception. Phasic alerting and exogenous orienting improve conscious perception of near-threshold information through segregated brain networks. Using a ...
How the human brain introspects about one's own episodes of cognitive control
(cortex, 2018)
Metacognition refers to our capacity to reflect upon our experiences, thoughts and actions. Metacognition processes are linked to cognitive control functions that allow keeping our actions on-task. But it is unclear how ...
Converging evidence for functional and structural segregation within the left ventral occipitotemporal cortex in reading
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS), 2018)
The ventral occipitotemporal cortex (vOTC) is crucial for recognizing visual patterns, and previous evidence suggests that there may be different subregions within the vOTC involved in the rapid identification of word ...
