Sustained dynamics of saccadic inhibition and adaptive oculomotor responses during continuous exploration
In natural environments, stimuli often recur across time and space, requiring the visual system to remain sensitive to novelty while managing predictability. A central question in systems neuroscience...

🛠️🧠 How do we reshape the material world? Not by general intelligence alone, but through a specialized neural system: the left area PF fuels our capacity to reason about physical causality—core to tool use, invention, and cumulative culture.

Left Area PF as a Neural Marker of Technical Reasoning
Humans possess a unique capacity for technical reasoning - the ability to infer and manipulate the causal structure of the physical world. Although this faculty is central to technological innovation,...

In Parkinson’s disease, fatigue may reflect impaired motor preparation. 🔍
This TMS study shows absent pre-movement facilitation (PMF) in the most affected hemisphere of fatigued patients — a potential neurophysiological marker ⚡🧠

👀🛠️ How do we look at tools? Familiarity reshapes visual attention: we search for meaning first, action later—unless prior knowledge shortcuts the process.
