The paper investigates how learning a second language affects the Visual Word Form Area (VWFA) by comparing brain responses to native and second language words in children at different literacy stages.

The paper investigates how early visual experience affects feedback processing in the human visual cortex using an occlusion paradigm and decoding methods.

This study investigates whether visual category-selectivity in VOTC emerges after sight restoration in congenitally blind humans, finding reduced face-selectivity and a double dissociation between visual and auditory decoding in VOTC.

The paper identifies category-preferring patches in the human orbitofrontal cortex using fMRI, showing similar organization and function to the ventral occipitotemporal cortex.

This study uses 7T fMRI to compare neural activity during visual mental imagery and perception in typical imagers and aphantasic individuals, revealing differences in brain connectivity.

This study uses 7T fMRI to investigate whether bilingual readers have distinct cortical patches for different languages, finding overlapping but specialized regions for English-French and additional patches for English-Chinese.

The paper investigates the relationship between perceptual awareness, emotional recognition, and pupillary responses to social threat using continuous flash suppression and a perceptual awareness scale.

This study uses fMRI to investigate whether perceptual awareness is gradual or dichotomous, finding gradual patterns in temporal areas and dichotomous patterns in fronto-parietal regions.

This study uses 7 Tesla MRI to find structural brain reductions in congenitally blind individuals compared to sighted controls, including grey and white matter changes across multiple brain regions.

This study investigates how subjective understanding of actions and emotions involves the semantic and action observation networks using fMRI and word embeddings.

The paper uses 7T fMRI to show pulvinar input to V1 superficial layers mediates threat anticipation, not just threat perception.

This study investigates gender-specific brain activation patterns when viewing paintings of male and female bodies, revealing distinct neural responses in brain regions associated with emotion, touch, and reward.
