This study investigates cortical responses in retinal degeneration using electrophysiological methods, finding preserved or enhanced cortical reactivity despite reduced visual input.

The paper shows that monocular deprivation in humans reduces pulvinar-to-V1 connectivity, correlating with reduced ocular dominance shift, suggesting pulvinar modulates adult visual plasticity.

The paper shows that face-gender classification in EEG exhibits serial dependence, with neural signals in beta frequencies (14-20 Hz) reflecting past perceptual experiences.

The paper shows that non-REM sleep stabilizes visual homeostatic plasticity in adults, with sleep spindle density and slow oscillations correlating with plasticity outcomes.

The paper investigates short-term plasticity in the visual thalamus, finding plasticity in the ventral pulvinar but not in the lateral geniculate nucleus.

The paper investigates neural oscillations in motor and sensory cortices using fMRI to show oscillatory coupling between V1 and M1 during voluntary action.

The paper investigates how auditory perceptual priors are propagated and updated through alpha and theta rhythms in response to expected and unexpected stimuli.

The paper shows that white matter fibers connecting area prostriata and the thalamus are retinotopically organized, with distinct pathways for central and peripheral visual fields.

The paper shows that past sensory experience biases perceptual decisions rhythmically through alpha oscillations at ~9 Hz, specific to the ear of origin.

This study shows that short-term monocular deprivation in adults increases BOLD response to the deprived eye in V1, V2, V3, and V4, indicating homeostatic plasticity in the visual cortex.

This paper demonstrates that short-term occlusion of the amblyopic eye combined with physical exercise improves visual acuity and stereopsis in adult amblyopia patients.
