Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MICHAEL S. GAZZANIGA The investigation of the human brain and mind involves a myriad of ap proaches. Cognitive neuroscience has grown out of the appreciation that these approaches have common goals that are separate from other goals in the neural sciences. By identifying cognition as the construct of interest, cognitive neuro science limits the scope of investigation to higher mental functions, while simultaneously tackling the greatest complexity of creation, the human mind. The chapters of this collection have their common thread in cognitive neuroscience. They attack the major cognitive processes using functional stud ies in humans. Indeed, functional measures of human sensation, perception, and cognition are the keystone of much of the neuroscience of cognitive sci ence, and event-related potentials (ERPs) represent a methodological "coming of age" in the study of the intricate temporal characteristics of cognition. Moreover, as the field of cognitive ERPs has matured, the very nature of physiology has undergone a significant revolution. It is no longer sufficient to describe the physiology of non-human primates; one must consider also the detailed knowledge of human brain function and cognition that is now available from functional studies in humans-including the electrophysiological studies in humans described here. Together with functional imaging of the human brain via positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), ERPs fill our quiver with the arrows required to pierce more than the single neuron, but the networks of cognition.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These findings suggest a causal relationship between gamma oscillations in the amygdala-hippocampal circuit for memory as a function of emotional context during encoding. My work generalizes important neuronal principles from animal studies to humans (such as spatially-tuned neurons and phase precession), but also extends those findings more deeply to memory, and to internal/subjective aspects of memory that are difficult to directly measure in animals. Overall this work represents an important step towards understanding how the human brain enables declarative memory.
Download or read book The Cognitive Electrophysiology of Mind and Brain written by Alberto Zani and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-10-10 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive electrophysiology is a very well established field utilizing new technologies such as bioelectric events-related potentials (ERP) and magnetic (ERF) recordings to pursue the investigation of mind and brain. Current research focuses on reviewing ERP/ERF findings in the areas of attention, language, memory, visual and auditory perceptual processing, emotions, development, and neuropsychological clinical damages. The goal of such research is basically to provide correlations between the structures of the brain and their complex cognitive functions.This book reviews the latest findings in the areas of attention, language, memory, visual and auditory perception, and brain damage research based primarily on research conducted using ERP recordings. Beyond just compiling the knowledge gained from ongoing research, the authors also identify outstanding problems in the field and predict future developments. Provides an original post-cognitive theoretical approach to the investigation of the human mind and brain Presents integrated view of the emotional and cognitive features as well as of developmental features of neurocognitive systems Well-illustrated with elegant and original artwork that clarifies complex theoretical and methodological points throughout the text

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Electrophysiology of Attention explores the fundamental mechanisms of attention and related cognitive functions from cognitive neuroscience perspectives. Attention is an essential cognitive ability that enables humans to process and act upon relevant information while ignoring distracting information, and the capacity to focus attention is at the core of mental functioning. Understanding the neural bases of human attention remains a key challenge for neuroscientists and psychologists, and is essential for translational efforts to treat attentional deficits in a variety of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Cognitive electrophysiology is at the center of a multidisciplinary approach that involves the efforts of psychologists, neuroscientists, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, and neurologists to identify basic brain mechanisms and develop translational approaches to improve mental health. This edited volume is authored by leading investigators in the field and discusses methods focused on electrophysiological recordings in humans, including electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) methods, and also incorporates evidence from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Cognitive Electrophysiology of Attention illuminates specific models about attentional mechanisms in vision, audition, multisensory integration, memory, and semantic processing in humans. Provides an exhaustive overview of attention processes, going from normal functioning to the pathological, and using a combination of methodological tools An important reference for electrophysiology researchers looking at underlying attention processes rather than the methods themselves Enables researchers across a broad range of cognitive-process and methodological specialties to stay current on particular hypotheses, findings, and methods Edited and authored by the worldwide leaders in the field, affording the broadest, most expert coverage available

This book was released on 2014 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visuomotor pathways of the brain are comprised of millions of neurons and complex interconnections among them exist. In order to fully understand visuomotor processes, we need to understand the mechanisms that allow neurons within these areas and between networks to coordinate with each other. The objective of the four studies presented in this thesis was to test whether specific electrophysiological signals reflect visuomotor integration and determine which aspects of behaviour are reflected in the modulation of these signals. I measured oscillatory and ERP activity during various delayed action tasks in order to determine how the brain uses both immediate visual information and visuoperceptual memory to execute goal-directed reaching. In the first study I addressed whether visuomotor regions might coordinate their function via theta oscillations. I determined that theta synchronization and mu desynchronization may represent broadly applicable rhythmic mechanisms for integration and visuomotor function in the human brain. In the second study, I investigated event-related potentials (ERPs) during the planning phase of actions. I found that the N170 ERP component, which is generally considered in the context of perception, is also sensitive to elements of action planning and connects visual perceptual and action processes. In the third study, I expanded on these results and investigated how perception for action is coded over time, by manipulating the delay period of the task. As delay period between target occlusion and movement initiation increased, modulation in the N170 amplitude reflected the accuracy of the stored memory representation. Finally, in the fourth study, I investigated how the two hemispheres of the brain contribute to visuomotor processes using the N170 as a measure. Results suggest that whereas visually initiated action is left-dominant, memory-initiated action may be right-dominant. In sum, this body of work provides further insight into the electrophysiological basis of human visuomotor function. Employment of a modifiable reaching paradigm has permitted the systematic investigation of how immediate available visual information and visuoperceptual memory informs action. I have identified two signals that can be used to assess brain activity during visuomotor behaviour in real-time.
