The Neural Basis for Spatial Relations
Studies in semantics traditionally focus on knowledge of objects. By contrast, less is known about how objects relate to each other. In an fMRI study, we tested the hypothesis tha...

Cortical Response to Task-relevant Stimuli Presented outside the Primary Focus of Attention
Visual attention selectively enhances the neural response to a task-relevant item. But what happens when an item outside the primary focus of attention is also relevant to the tas...

Age-related Neural Changes during Memory Conjunction Errors
Human behavioral studies demonstrate that healthy aging is often accompanied by increases in memory distortions or errors. Here we used event-related fMRI to examine the neural ba...

Syntactic Unification Operations Are Reflected in Oscillatory Dynamics during On-line Sentence Comprehension
There is growing evidence suggesting that synchronization changes in the oscillatory neuronal dynamics in the EEG or MEG reflect the transient coupling and uncoupling of functiona...

A Multimodal Neural Network Recruited by Expertise with Musical Notation
Prior neuroimaging work on visual perceptual expertise has focused on changes in the visual system, ignoring possible effects of acquiring expert visual skills in nonvisual areas....

Neural Dissociations between Action Verb Understanding and Motor Imagery
According to embodied theories of language, people understand a verb like throw, at least in part, by mentally simulating throwing. This implicit simulation is often assumed to be...

fMRI Activation during Observation of Others' Reach Errors
When exposed to novel dynamical conditions (e.g., externally imposed forces), neurologically intact subjects easily adjust motor commands on the basis of their own reaching errors...

Encoding in the Visual Word Form Area: An fMRI Adaptation Study of Words versus Handwriting
Written texts are not just words but complex multidimensional stimuli, including aspects such as case, font, and handwriting style, for example. Neuropsychological reports suggest...
