The functional role of frontal and parietal feedback to visual cortex in selective visual attention
PROJECT SUMMARY: Imagine Times Square in New York City: tall buildings, flashing lights, a swarm of people. This visual scene represents a potential overload of sensory information. To guide behavior, the brain uses a collection of filtering mechanisms that either boosts the processing of behaviorally relevant information or suppresses the processing of distracting information. Impairments in this selective processing of sensory information can have critical consequences for human health. Such consequences are apparent, for example, in visuo-hemineglect associated with stroke, and in some neurodevelopmental disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism…
