Several studies have indicated a key role for dorsal stream processing in lexical decoding. To examine this relationship further, performance on orthographic and phonological reading tests was compared with both steady-state visual evoked potentials and a putative behavioral measure of dorsal stream processing, coherent motion detection. Frequency analysis of the visual evoked potential data showed power at the second harmonic to be largely confined to dorsal stream regions, and significantly correlated with motion detection thresholds. Regression analyses showed that orthographic processing was significantly associated with the second harmonic power. Although consistent with previous reports, there remains a question as to why the orthographic visual evoked potential power relationship did not extend to include the coherent motion detection measures.

Integrating spatial and temporal information is essential for our sensory experience. While psychophysical evidence suggests spatial dependencies in duration perception, few studies have directly tested the neural link between temporal and spatial processing. Using ultra-high-field functional MRI and neuronal-based modeling, we investigated how and where the processing and the representation of a visual stimulus duration is linked to that of its spatial location.

Syntactic processing and verbal working memory are both essential components to sentence comprehension. Nonetheless, the separability of these systems in the brain remains unclear. To address this issue, we performed causal-inference analyses based on lesion and connectome network mapping using MRI and behavioural testing in two groups of individuals with chronic post-stroke aphasia.

The thalamus plays a crucial role in the development of the neocortex, with the pulvinar being particularly important for visual development due to its involvement in various functions that emerge early in infancy. The development of connections between the pulvinar and the cortex constrains its role in infant visual processing and the maturation of associated cortical networks. However, the extent to which adult-like pulvino-cortical pathways are present at birth remains largely unknown, limiting our understanding of how the thalamus may support early vision.

The removal of back armor marks the first stage in the comprehensive processing of river crabs. However, the current low level of mechanization undermines the effectiveness of this process. By integrating robotic systems with image recognition technology, the efficient removal of dorsal armor from river crabs is anticipated.
