New preprint! V4 responds to mid-level features that facilitate object recognition from fragments when visual information is sparse.
This study points to possible alternative stimulation sites for cortical prostheses to restore vision. @bogdandraganski.bsky.social @antoinelutti.bsky.social
Mid-level visual features engage V4 to support sparse object recognition under uncertainty https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.10.28.685033v1

Brain-training games: What the evidence really says about their benefits
Brain-training games lack solid evidence for improving cognition, but research shows engaging in new, challenging activities—like learning skills or playing effortful games—can enhance memory, processing speed, and brain efficiency.

"the mediodorsal thalamus independently represents cueing and rule uncertainty. This enables the relevant thalamic population to drive prefrontal reconfiguration ... appropriately attributing errors to an environmental change."

Prefrontal transthalamic uncertainty processing drives flexible switching - Nature
By examining neural responses from tree shrews performing hierarchical decision tasks with rule reversals, the authors identify a thalamocortical mechanism for regulating cognitive flexibility.
