Genealogy of the "grandmother cell"Charles G Gross
Department of Psychology, Princeton University, New Jersey 08544, USA
Neuroscientist 8:512-8. 2002..This essay discusses the origin, influence, and current status of these terms and of the alternative view that complex stimuli are represented by the pattern of firing across ensembles of neurons...
Response latencies of neurons in visual areas MT and MST of monkeys with striate cortex lesionsPaul Azzopardi
Department of Psychology, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544 1010, USA
Neuropsychologia 41:1738-56. 2003..Overall, the results are incompatible with the hypothesis that there are dissociable routes to MT specialized for processing separately fast and slow motion...
Neural representations of faces and body parts in macaque and human cortex: a comparative FMRI studyMark A Pinsk
Department of Psychology, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
J Neurophysiol 101:2581-600. 2009..Overall, our findings demonstrate commonalities and differences in the wide-scale brain organization between the two species and provide an initial step toward establishing functionally homologous category-selective areas...

Department of Psychology, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey 08544, USA
J Neurosci 22:619-23. 2002
Twitches versus movements: a story of motor cortexCharlotte S R Taylor

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:6996-7001. 2005..Immediately adjacent to the face areas, regions were activated bilaterally responding preferentially to body parts. Our findings suggest a category-selective organization for faces and body parts in macaque temporal cortex...
The clothing effect: tactile neurons in the precentral gyrus do not respond to the touch of the familiar primate chairMichael S A Graziano
Department of Psychology, Green Hall, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:11930-3. 2002..However, the same neurons did not respond when the tactile receptive field was touched by the primate chair, to which the monkey was habituated...

Diminished adult neurogenesis in the marmoset brain precedes old ageBenedetta Leuner
Department of Psychology, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:17169-73. 2007..These data demonstrate that a substantial decrease in neurogenesis occurs before the onset of old age in the adult marmoset brain, suggesting the possibility that similar alterations occur in the human brain...
