Plant drugs used by ancient Graeco-Roman societies have tastes and flavours that predict how they were used therapeutically.

People who have attempted suicide exhibit blunted sensory processing during breathing and pain perturbations, as well as lower heartbeat perception accuracy and reduced mid/posterior insula activity during interoceptive attention.

Default mode network and visual cortex are connected via two parallel pathways that differentially respond to the processing of visual scenes and semantic information about objects, reflecting domain-specific organisation.

Consistent spatial clustering and fine-scale neural tuning to different face parts were found within the face-processing regions, which may be the neural implementation of efficient neural computation for face identification.

Behavioral and computational results show that the perception of our body as our own depends on Bayesian probabilistic reasoning that take into account the variations in sensory uncertainty when integrating visual and somatosensory cues.

Humans are able to generate a complete category of varied objects from just one exemplar shape, identifying and utilizing its most distinctive parts to create a coherent group, even for other observers.

The novel neural marker for the integration of top-down predictions and bottom-up signals in perception elucidates uncertainty in perceptual inference and provides evidence for the predictive coding account of perception.

Human listeners rapidly form robust, long lasting (up to 7 weeks) memories of rarely encountered, featureless sound sequences presented among many similar stimuli.

Category-selective intracerebral neurophysiological activity in low- and high-frequency bands show unprecedented corresponding spatial, functional, and timing properties in the human brain.

Context-based object recognition causally relies on both scene- and object-selective cortex, with scene-selective cortex generating expectations (at 160-200 ms after onset) that disambiguate object representations in object-selective cortex (at 260-300 ms after onset).
