We found place-biases to also be visually biased. But face biases to be sandwiched between visual and auditory biased patches (data from individual subjs that did both category and sensory tasks). Adds to the complex interdigitations in the frontal lobe.

The results were robust, replicating across different cognitive tasks, experimental designs (block and event-related) and at the single subject level.

New preprint!

New paper on task and stimulus coding. Both were discriminated across the cortex. Tasks were most discriminated in MD areas; stimuli in visual and MD adjacent areas. Unlike monkey neurons, human fMRI showed mostly linear task and stimulus combinations.

New paper! We propose a novel hypothesis on the diversity of human executive functions. We used cutting-edge multimodal fMRI approaches to unveil an intricate dance between domain-general and domain-specific circuits.
