Early and late visual deprivation trigger a redeployment mechanism that reallocate part of the processing typically tagging the preserved senses (i.e. the temporal cortex for auditory stimulation) to the occipital cortex deprived of its most salient visual input.

Keeping flexible adaptable representations of speech categories at different time scales allows the brain to maintain stable perception in the face of varying speech sound characteristics.

Incidental experiences can lead to lasting category knowledge, demonstrating that humans forage for information to acquire and consolidate new knowledge even when learning is not strictly necessary for success on an ongoing task.

The categorical organization of the ventral occipito-temporal cortex, typically thought to be a visual region, is actually partially independent of visual input and even visual experience.

Human-like color categories emerge in a Deep Neural Network trained only on object recognition.

Pharmacological fMRI reveals that associative connections contribute to odor categorization by supporting discrimination and generalization at different stages of the human olfactory system.

Beta-band oscillations in the frontoparietal network may act as a filter of relevant versus irrelevant neural representations for the ongoing cognitive task.

The motor-relevant properties of the myriad objects with which we interact on a daily basis are encoded in memory using categorical representations, or 'object families'.

Biomedical doctoral students and those from historically excluded groups exhibit higher rates of mental distress, which worsened in 2020 for some populations.

Scalp electroencephalography combined with a frequency tagging method reveals that distinct responses to daily categories emerge at different ages in infants.
