Brett Foster Department of Neurosurgery University of Pennsylvania Limits on the functional role of gamma oscillations in visual perception Neocortical ‘gamma oscillations’ have repeatedly been proposed as a mechanism of visual perception, and cognition more generally, by coordinating neural activity within and between brain areas. Historically, non-human primate electrophysiology has reported narrowband gamma […]

Join Dani Bassett (Penn Engineering) and Perry Zurn (American University) for a discussion of their new book, available from MIT Press. In Curious Minds: The Power of Connection, the twins draw on their previous research, as well as an expansive network of ideas from philosophy, history, education and art. They identify three styles of […]

We know that languages are shaped by a range of forces, from limitations on our cognitive system, to cognition-external facts about […]
