연구의 목적
-the different neural substrate for the two stage of attention 연구 AB paradigm – 의식적으로 보고한 target 과 보고되지 않은 target 간에 서로 다른 뇌영역 관여할 것
Parietofrontal cortical network –capacity-limited attention-demanding stage
Inferior temporal cortex -visual categorization & representation
- 연구의 가설 1) reported & unreported 시각자극 둘 다 occipitotemporal cortex 에까지 이르는 high-level stage 에 관여될 것
2) reported & unreported 시각자극은 정보처리의 뒷 단계인 parietofrontal network of attention 에서 차이날 것
실험절차1) 행동실험-dual task 실험 :T1 & T2 detection-single task 실험 :T2 detection
2) FMRI 실험-localizer task-dual task

Ventral premotor cortex(VPC)
VPC :sensory information 을 action 으로 연결시키는 과정에 관련
1) parietal & prefrontal cortex 로부터 입력 & motor area, subcortical, & spinal cord 로 입력 2) VPC 에 감각 , 운동 neurons 존재 , 복잡한 sensorimotor action 입력 3) VPC 의 inactivation 은 sensorimotor task 에 영향
Ventral PremotorCortex (VPC) 실험조건 :
Base frequency 보다Comparison frequency 가높은지 낮은지 판단
통제조건 :빛나던 button 을 누름
결과 분석 :자극 -f1, f2, f2-f1반응 -hits & errors

Reward-dependent gain and bias of visual responses
in primate superior colliculus
임상상담 전공이지은
• superior colliculus(SC) :sensory signals 를 가진 정보들이 입력되어 눈과 머리의 움직임을 orienting 하는 sensorimotor mechanisms
• 수많은 경쟁적 자극 중 선택의 문제 : “past experience of reward”
• 연구 목적 :investigate whether the SC is involved in the selection of visual targets by reward
실험 방법• Memory-guided saccade task (one-direction rewarded version) -cue :RF / cue :non RF -reward :RF / reward :non RF
• single-unit recording into SC
• measures -gross visual response -base activity -net visual response =gross-base
Base activity gross visual response
