Frequency preference and attention effects across cortical depths in the human primary auditory cortex
2015
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Here, we refer to columnar region as the cortical region where the variation of frequency with depth is significantly smaller compared with the frequency variation orthogonal to depth (i.e., across the ...
Then, by analyzing the 3D spatial variations of these responses, we identified the PAC regions with a stable arrangement of BF across cortical depths. ...

Human primary visual cortex shows larger population receptive fields for binocular disparity-defined stimuli
[article]
2021
bioRxiv
pre-print
Here we investigate the neural population receptive field properties of responses to binocular information in striate and extrastriate cortical visual areas using ultra-high field fMRI. ...
These findings provide insight into the binocular receptive field properties underlying processing for human stereoscopic vision. ...
Therefore, the BOLD signal reflects a population preference, which nevertheless reveals systematic variation in pRF size for disparity both within and across cortical visual regions. ...

Population receptive field tuning properties of visual cortex during childhood
2019
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
Importantly, this in-depth characterisation of the pRF tuning profiles across childhood, paves the way for in-vivo-testing of atypical visual cortex development and plasticity. ...
We tested to which extent this development might reflect improved spatial sensitivity of neuronal populations in visual cortex. ...
We therefore tested if any age differences in population receptive fields might be masked by systematic differences in the cortical surface area of V1 across age groups. ...

Population receptive field tuning properties of visual cortex during childhood
[article]
2017
bioRxiv
pre-print
One contributing factor could be the protracted development of spatial tuning of neuronal populations across the visual cortex. ...
These results suggest that visuospatial perception in late childhood beyond age 6 years is not substantially limited by low-level spatial tuning properties of neuronal populations in visual cortex. ...
We therefore tested if any age differences in population receptive fields might be masked by systematic differences in the cortical surface area of V1 across age groups. ...

Near-optimal combination of disparity across a log-polar scaled visual field
2020
PLoS Computational Biology
We develop a foveated, log-polar model that mimics the processing of depth information in primary visual cortex and that can process disparity directly in the cortical domain representation. ...
We further show that the visual system integrates disparity information across the visual field, in a near-optimal fashion. ...
Cortical processing. In the human visual system, visual processing is performed by networks of units (cells) described by their receptive fields. ...

Functional classes of neurons in primary auditory cortex of the cat distinguished by sensitivity to sound location

Journal of Neuroscience
We have mapped receptive fields of single units in AI of the cat by varying systematically the location of a tonal stimulus within a sound field free of acoustic obstructions and reflections. ...
Some of the properties of the measured receptive fields could be inferred by comparing the passive acoustical properties of the ear with binaural interactions previously described in AI. ...

Large-Scale Gradients in Human Cortical Organization
2018
Trends in Cognitive Sciences
Recent advances in mapping cortical areas in the human brain provide a basis for investigating the significance of their spatial arrangement. ...
We propose that this gradient constitutes a core organizing axis of the human cerebral cortex, and describe an intrinsic coordinate system on its basis. ...
For example, the distribution of MRI-based myelin across the cortical depth differs between visual and somatomotor regions [58] , in line with well-established histological findings [1] . ...

The influence of non-neural factors on BOLD signal magnitude
[article]
2021
bioRxiv
pre-print
In a re-analysis of three neuroimaging datasets, we find large systematic inhomogeneities in the BOLD response magnitude in primary visual cortex (V1): stimulus-evoked BOLD responses, expressed in units ...
We conclude that interpretation of variation in BOLD response magnitude across cortical locations should consider the influence of the potential confounding factors of cortical thickness, curvature, and ...
For example, population receptive field models incorporate an explicit gain parameter that is distinct from other parameters (such as receptive field position) in the model. ...
