The paper investigates how structural connectivity in the brain influences visual and semantic representations in older adults, finding that connectivity mediates age-related declines in perceptual representation and supports semantic memory.

This study uses large language models to map how the brain encodes relational semantic information, showing distinct brain regions represent concepts and their relationships.

This study shows that older adults use semantic schemas more effectively than young adults for memory encoding, mediated by distinct cortico-hippocampal interactions.

This paper introduces trial-level RSA (tRSA) to assess neural representation at the trial level, finding it more sensitive and theoretically appropriate than classic RSA.

The paper investigates how information coding transitions from modular to distributed in the ventral stream using fMRI data, finding that occipital regions are modular while inferior temporal regions are distributed.

The paper investigates whether semantic dimensions account for neural correlates of object memorability using multimodal datasets and fMRI data.

This study shows that retargeting of efferent projections to residual muscles in lower limb amputees is associated with increased phantom limb pain.
