Is the concept of “category-selectivity” holding the field back in understanding high-level visual cortex? Detailed discussion in our published perspective piece and accompanying commentaries:
This paper had a pretty shocking headline result (40% of voxels!), so I dug into it, and I think it is wrong. Essentially: they compare two noisy measures and find that about 40% of voxels have different sign between the two. I think this is just noise!
Psychologists doing clustering be like:

Aging reorganizes human large-scale brain networks, with consequences for cognition & dementia risk. We’ve now mapped brain network changes over a wide range of the mouse lifespan. The changes mirror key features of human aging, but not entirely

Across two new papers, we examined the eye movement patterns of younger adults, older adults, individuals with mild cognitive impairment, and amnesic cases.

This book has just been published, open access, edited by Ken Cheng and me. It contains multiple chapters originating in a wonderful Strungmann Forum held in Frankfurt around a year ago.

This open access book explores navigation across species using a multidisciplinary approach to address challenges in research and clinical applications.
Are episodic and semantic memory really that different? Using closely matched tasks, a new study found no substantial neural differences between recalling personal experiences and general knowledge: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Would love to hear expert views on this paper. It appears to show that the operationalization of brain activity the field has relied on for 3 decades—the BOLD response—is not actually a sensible measure of brain activity.

Using quantitative brain imaging, the authors show opposite fMRI BOLD signal to metabolic activity due to variable oxygen extraction across the human cortex. This questions the canonical interpretatio...
