Integrating spatial and temporal information is essential for our sensory experience. While psychophysical evidence suggests dependencies in duration perception, few studies have directly tested the neural link between processing. Using ultra-high-field functional MRI neuronal-based modeling, we investigated how where processing representation of a visual stimulus linked to that its location. Our results show transition coding: from monotonic spatially-dependent early cortex unimodal spatially-invariant frontal cortex. Along dorsal stream, particularly intraparietal sulcus (IPS), neuronal populations common selective responses both information. In IPS, topographic organizations are also linked, although maps smaller, less clustered, more variable across participants. These findings help identify mechanisms underlying human perception characterize time space processing, highlighting importance their interactions shaping brain responses. Common organizational principles not fully understood. This study shows coding brief events transforms along cortical hierarchy, interact through representations.

Abstract Nonpainful tactile sensory stimuli are processed in the cortex, subcortex, and brainstem. Recent functional magnetic resonance imaging studies have highlighted value of whole-brain, systems-level investigation for examining processing. However, whole-brain uncommon, part due to challenges with signal noise when studying Furthermore, differentiation small brainstem structures such as cuneate gracile nuclei necessitates high-resolution imaging. To address this gap investigation, we employed a multi-echo acquisition at 3T independent component analysis denoising brainstem-specific modeling enable detection activation across entire system. In healthy participants, examined patterns activity response nonpainful brushing right hand, left foot (n = 10 per location), found expected lateralization, distinct cortical subcortical responses upper lower limb stimulation.

Abstract Neuromorphic perception capable of multisensory integration (MSI) in electrolytes is important but remains challenging. Here, the aqueous implementation artificial MSI reported based on newly emerged organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) by representative visual (light)‐gustatory (sour) perception. Under co‐modulation light and H + /OH − , synaptic plasticity several typical characteristics are mimicked, including “super‐additive response,” “inverse effectiveness effect” “temporal congruency.” To demonstrate its potential usage, different types associative learning corresponding reflex activities further emulated. The chemical system also utilized to control salivation a closed loop real‐time perception, processing, integration, actuation emulate biological responses toward external stimuli. In contrast previous solid‐state operations, this work offers new strategy for developing neuromorphic environments that analogous those biology.

A vast range of neurophysiological, neuropsychological and behavioural results in monkeys humans have shown that the immediate surroundings body, also known as peripersonal space (PPS), are processed a unique way. Three roles been ascribed to PPS mechanisms: react threats, avoid obstacles act on objects. However, many circumstances, one does not wait for objects or agents enter plan these behaviours. Typically, has more chances survive if starts running away from lion when sees it distance than is few steps away. makes sense shortsighted creatures but we such creatures. The crucial question thus twofold: (i) why adaptive processes triggered only at last second even milliseconds? And (ii) what their exact contribution, especially defensive navigational behaviours? Here, propose mechanisms correspond B, useful unpredictable situations other anticipatory failed. Furthermore, argue there energetic, cognitive costs mechanisms, which explain this B second.

The Spanish neuroscientist Justo Gonzalo y Rodriguez-Leal (1910-1986) investigated the functional organisation of cerebral cortex over more than four decades. His findings led him to formulate a neurophysiological theory based on laws nervous excitability, which he called brain dynamics. This paper presents in chronological order how main ideas it is arose.

Sensory systems evolved to provide the organism with information about environment guide adaptive behaviour. Neuroscientists and psychologists have traditionally considered each sense independently, a legacy of Aristotle natural consequence their distinct physical anatomical bases. However, from point view organism, perception sensorimotor behaviour are fundamentally multi-modal; after all, modality provides complementary same world. Classic studies revealed much where how sensory signals combined improve performance, but these tended treat multisensory integration as static, passive, bottom-up process. It has become increasingly clear this approach falls short, ignoring interplay between action, temporal dynamics decision process many ways by which brain can exert top-down control integration. The goal issue is highlight recent advances on higher order aspects processing, together constitute mainstay our understanding complex, its neural basis.

Background The correlation between visual impairment and Müller-Lyer illusion is not yet elucidated. This study aimed to explore the connection status, age, intensity of in congenitally visually impaired healthy children aged 4–17 years. Additionally, developmental trends were compared. Methods cross-sectional included 125 (age: 10.59 ± 4.05 years), among them, 53 had utilized low vision aids (LVAs) 133 controls 11.33 3.39 years). participants presented with stimuli via binocular engaged a two-alternative forced choice task quantify intensity. Pertinent factors including gender, residence, distant best-corrected acuity LVAs usage history, assessed. Results group exhibited significantly elevated compared (9.74 2.89% vs. 5.42 3.81%, p < 0.001), who used lower those (9.13 3.00% 10.19 2.74%, = 0.043). Multivariate generalized estimation equations revealed that [odds ratio (OR) 2.75, 0.001] age (OR 0.60, 0.001) associated all participants, while history 0.49, 0.045) 0.61, negatively correlated group. A negative was found years subgroups ( Y −0.54X + 15.06, R 2 0.56), −0.49X 15.24, 0.51), −0.50X 11.18, 0.21); -values 0.001. Conclusion Children afflicted congenital heightened normal counterparts, experience could reduce this higher trajectory declined consistently across three groups. abnormal experiences during early-life may adversely affect integration children, facilitate functional development.
