Characterizing Spatiotemporal Population Receptive Fields in Human Visual Cortex with fMRI
(Jneurosci, 2024)
The use of fMRI and computational modeling has advanced understanding of spatial characteristics of population receptive fields (pRFs) in human visual cortex. However, we know relatively little about the spatiotemporal ...
Probing the Representational Structure of RegularPolysemy via Sense Analogy Questions: Insights fromContextual Word Vectors
(WILEY, 2024)
Regular polysemes are sets of ambiguous words that all share the same relationship between their meanings, such as CHICKEN and LOBSTER both referring to an animal or its meat. To probe how a distributional semantic model, ...
Functional near infrared spectroscopy detects cortical activation changes concurrent with memory loss in postmenopausal women with Type II Diabetes
(SPRINGER, 2023)
Older adults with Type II Diabetes Mellitus (DM) experience mild cognitive impairment, specifically in the domain of recall/working memory. No consistent causative structural cortical deficits have been identified in persons ...
Morphological decomposition in Chinese compound word recognition: Electrophysiological evidence
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
The present study examined the effect of both morphological complexity and semantic transparency in Chinese compound word recognition. Using a visual lexical decision task, our electrophysiological results showed that ...
Cognitive reserve counteracts typical neural activity changes related to ageing
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Studies have shown that older adults with high Cognitive Reserve (HCR) exhibit better executive functioning than their low CR (LCR) counterparts. However, the neural processes linked to those differences are unclear. This ...
Effects of impurities on the ice microstructure of Monte Perdido Glacier, Central Pyrenees, NE Spain
(Cambridge University Press, 2023)
Monte Perdido Glacier, located in the central Pyrenees, is one of the southernmost glaciers in Europe. Due to climate change, this glacier is suffering an accelerated mass loss, especially in the last decades. If the current ...
Century-long recovery of mycorrhizal interactions in European beech forests after mining
(Plant and Soil, 2024-01-01)
Background and aims: Ecological restoration strategies are emerging globally to counteract biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation. However, restored ecosystems may not reach undisturbed biodiversity and functionality. ...
Afferents to Action: Cortical Proprioceptive Processing Assessed with Corticokinematic Coherence Specifically Relates to Gross Motor Skills
(Society for Neuroscience, 2024)
Voluntary motor control is thought to be predicated on the ability to efficiently integrate and process somatosensory afferent information. However, current approaches in the field of motor control have not factored in ...
Developing countries can adapt to climate change effectively using nature-based solutions
(Communications Earth and Environment, 2024-12-01)
Evidence on the effectiveness of climate change adaptation interventions in low- and middle-income countries has been rapidly growing in recent years, particularly in the agricultural and coastal sectors. Here we address ...
Phonological deficits in dyslexia impede lexical processing of spoken words: Linking behavioural and MEG data
(ELSEVIER, 2024)
Phonological difficulties have been identified as a core deficit in developmental dyslexia, yet everyday speech comprehension, which relies on phonological processing, is seemingly unaffected. This raises the question as ...
