Phonetic invariance in the human auditory cortex.

abstract：:Apolipoprotein E (apoE) and the beta-amyloid peptide are both found in the senile plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease. Several studies have recently determined that apoE can prevent beta-amyloid fibril (Abetaf) formation in vitro. In vivo, apoE is normally associated with a lipid source. We show that both reco...

abstract：:Primate vision consists mostly of periods of stable fixation separated by rapid saccadic eye movements. Each saccade brings a new scene onto the retina, and each new scene results in a burst of activity in the neurons of visual cortex. It might be expected that the activity of these neurons should only represent what ...
