Separate neural subsystems within 'Wernicke's area'.
Over time, both the functional and anatomical boundaries of 'Wernicke's area' have become so broad as to be meaningless. We have re-analysed four functional neuroimaging (PET) studies, three previously published and one unpublished, to identify anatomically separable, functional subsystems in the left superior temporal cortex posterior to primary auditory cortex. From the results we identified ...
متن کاملSeparate valuation subsystems for delay and effort decision costs.
Decision making consists of choosing among available options on the basis of a valuation of their potential costs and benefits. Most theoretical models of decision making in behavioral economics, psychology, and computer science propose that the desirability of outcomes expected from alternative options can be quantified by utility functions. These utility functions allow a decision maker to as...
متن کاملBeyond a single area: motor control and language within a neural architecture encompassing Broca's area.
In this position paper, we discuss a neural architecture comprising three major cortical systems: the inferior frontal cortex (including Broca's area), the rostral part of the posterior parietal cortex, and the superior temporal cortex. This network of areas is critical to imitation and to language. What are the functional properties of the network that make it possible for imitation and langua...
متن کاملSeparate spatial scales determine neural activity-dependent changes in tissue oxygen within central visual pathways.
The relationship between oxygen levels and neural activity in the brain is fundamental to functional neuroimaging techniques. We have examined this relationship on a fine spatial scale in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and visual cortex of the cat using a microelectrode sensor that provides simultaneous colocalized measurements of oxygen partial pressure in tissue (tissue oxygen) and mult...
متن کاملVirialization of matter overdensities within dark energy subsystems: special cases
The virialization of matter overdensities within dark energy subsystems is considered under a number of restrictive assumptions, namely (i) spherical-symmetric density profiles, (ii) time-independent quintessence equation of state parameter, w, and (iii) nothing but gravitational interaction between dark energy scalar field and matter. In addition, the quintessence subsystem is conceived as mad...
