Papers
Attention-dependent suppression of distracter visual input can be cross-modally cued as indexed by anticipatory parieto–occipital alpha-band oscillations
Kai-Ming G. Fu,John J. Foxe,John J. Foxe,Micah M. Murray,Micah M. Murray,Beth A. Higgins,Daniel C. Javitt,Daniel C. Javitt,Daniel C. Javitt,Charles E. Schroeder,Charles E. Schroeder +10 more
TL;DR: The results of this series of studies suggest that these parietal regions are capable of integrating sensory cues from multiple sensory modalities in order to program the subsequent deployment of visual attention.

Activation Timecourse of Ventral Visual Stream Object-recognition Areas: High Density Electrical Mapping of Perceptual Closure Processes
Glen M. Doniger,John J. Foxe,Micah M. Murray,Beth A. Higgins,Charles E. Schroeder,Daniel C. Javitt +5 more
TL;DR: Scalp-current density mapping of the Ncl revealed bilateral occipito-temporal scalp foci, which are consistent with generators in the human ventral visual stream, and specifically the lateral-occipital or LO complex as defined by hemodynamic studies of object recognition.

Sensory Deficits and Distributed Hierarchical Dysfunction in Schizophrenia
TL;DR: The findings support distributed, hierarchical models of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia, consistent with glutamatergic and other widespread neurochemical models of the disorder.

The deployment of intersensory selective attention: a high-density electrical mapping study of the effects of theanine.
Manuel Gomez-Ramirez,Beth A. Higgins,Jane Rycroft,Gail Nicola Owen,Jeannette R. Mahoney,Marina Shpaner,Marina Shpaner,John J. Foxe +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that theanine has clear psychoactive properties, and that it represents a potentially interesting, naturally occurring compound for further study, as it relates to the brain's attentional system.
