Top-down modulation: bridging selective attention and working memory

A Gazzaley, AC Nobre - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2012 - cell.com
Selective attention, the ability to focus our cognitive resources on information relevant to our
goals, influences working memory (WM) performance. Indeed, attention and working …

Dissociating explicit timing from temporal expectation with fMRI

JT Coull, AC Nobre - Current opinion in neurobiology, 2008 - Elsevier
Explicit timing is engaged whenever subjects make a deliberate estimate of discrete duration
in order to compare it with a previously memorised standard. Conversely, implicit timing is …

The hazards of time

AC Nobre, A Correa, JT Coull - Current opinion in neurobiology, 2007 - Elsevier
Temporal expectations are continuously formed and updated, and interact with expectations
about other relevant attributes of events, in order to optimise our interaction with unfolding …

Orienting attention in time: behavioural and neuroanatomical distinction between exogenous and endogenous shifts

JT Coull, CD Frith, C Büchel, AC Nobre - Neuropsychologia, 2000 - Elsevier
Temporal orienting of attention is the ability to focus resources at a particular moment in time
in order to optimise behaviour, and is associated with activation of left parietal and premotor …

Covert visual spatial orienting and saccades: overlapping neural systems

AC Nobre, DR Gitelman, EC Dias, MM Mesulam - Neuroimage, 2000 - Elsevier
We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the functional
anatomical relationship between covert orienting of visual spatial attention and execution of …

Where and when to pay attention: the neural systems for directing attention to spatial locations and to time intervals as revealed by both PET and fMRI

JT Coull, AC Nobre - Journal of Neuroscience, 1998 - Soc Neuroscience
… The locations of the brain activations selective for combined spatial and temporal orienting
are shown in Figure 3Ac, rendered on a surface view of a standard brain. The bilateral …

Language-related field potentials in the anterior-medial temporal lobe: II. Effects of word type and semantic priming

AC Nobre, G McCarthy - Journal of neuroscience, 1995 - Soc Neuroscience
… The similar amplitude of the AMTL N400 across content words and anomalous sentence
endings in the present study, and in our study of scalp-recorded N400 (Nobre and McCarthy, …

Qualitative mapping of cerebral blood flow and functional localization with echo-planar MR imaging and signal targeting with alternating radio frequency.

…, B Siewert, DG Darby, V Thangaraj, AC Nobre… - Radiology, 1994 - pubs.rsna.org
PURPOSE: To create qualitative maps of cerebral blood flow (CBF) with the EPISTAR (echo-planar
imaging and signal targeting with alternating radio frequency) technique. …

Word recognition in the human inferior temporal lobe

AC Nobre, T Allison, G McCarthy - Nature, 1994 - nature.com
STUDIES of primates 1 and of patients with brain lesions 2 have shown that the visual
system represents the external world in regions and pathways specialized to compute visual …
