The Functional Consequences of Social Attention for Memory-guided Attention Orienting and Anticipatory Neural Dynamics
(2019-02)
Social attention when viewing natural social (compared to non-social) images has functional consequences on contextual memory in healthy human adults. In addition to attention affecting memory performance, strong evidence ...
Unimodal and bimodal access to sensory working memories by auditory and visual impulses
(2019-11)
It is unclear to what extent sensory processing areas are involved in the maintenance of sensory information in working memory (WM). Previous studies have thus far relied on finding neural activity in the corresponding ...
Modulation of the pupillary response by the content of visual working memory
(2019-09)
Studies of selective attention during perception have revealed
modulation of the pupillary response according to the brightness
of task-relevant (attended) vs. -irrelevant (unattended) stimuli
within a visual display. ...
Hippocampal network abnormalities explain amnesia after VGKCC-Ab related autoimmune limbic encephalitis
(2019-05)
Objective Limbic encephalitis associated with antibodies to components of the voltage-gated potassium channel complex (VGKCC-Ab-LE) often leads to hippocampal atrophy and persistent memory impairment. Its long-term impact ...
Premembering Experience: A Hierarchy of Time-Scales for Proactive Attention
(2019-10)
Memories are about the past, but they serve the future. Memory research often emphasizes the former aspect: focusing on the functions that re-constitute (re-member) experience and elucidating the various types of memories ...
Prospective task knowledge improves working memory-guided behaviour
(2019-07)
Working memory (WM) is the ability to keep information online for a forthcoming task. WM
theories have tended to focus on how sensory information is maintained, and less on how WM
content is used for guiding behaviour. ...
The Oxford study of Calcium channel Antagonism, Cognition, Mood instability and Sleep (OxCaMS): study protocol for a randomised controlled, experimental medicine study
(2019-02)
Background:
The discovery that voltage-gated calcium channel genes such as CACNA1C are part of the aetiology of psychiatric disorders has rekindled interest in the therapeutic potential of L-type calcium channel (LTCC) ...
