The paper models orientation selectivity in mouse superior colliculus to show it shares computational principles with primate visual cortex despite differences in expression.

This study shows eye metrics like pupil size and eye movements can indicate conscious awareness and neural processing in cerebral blindness, even when behavioral tests suggest otherwise.

The paper investigates the neural basis of the double-drift illusion using fMRI, finding that hMT+ decodes the illusory trajectory, suggesting a perceptual representation independent of retinal position.

The paper presents a network model that explains both concordant and discordant results in human neuroimaging studies of facial viewpoint selectivity by incorporating biological constraints and analyzing low-level stimulus biases.

The paper analyzes fMRI data to show that neural representations in human primary visual cortex drift over time, with changes in responsivity but stable population-level representational dissimilarities.

This study investigates how emotional faces modulate human visual cortex, finding layer-specific and retinotopically diffuse effects consistent with amygdala feedback.

This study compares how endogenous and exogenous attention affect visual cortex activity during an orientation discrimination task, finding distinct modulation patterns in different brain regions.

This study shows that training-induced recovery in cortically-blind patients is linked to changes in perilesional V1 activity and receptive field enlargement.

This study shows that research on orientation selectivity in visual cortex may have measured sensitivity to luminance changes instead, using computational models and fMRI experiments.
