Prefrontal causal roles in bistable perception are dynamically changing and determined by the brain state to which the whole-brain activity pattern belongs.

Simultaneous sampling of electrical voltages outside the brain with neural signals in the cerebral cortex reveals how electrical currents in mosaics of cortical columns produce an electrical signal that can be measured noninvasively to assess the allocation of attention.

The pattern of spatial attention preferences in caudate neurons is altered by superior colliculus inactivation, demonstrating that a superior colliculus to basal ganglia link is important for selective attention.
The 'double-drift' illusion involves integration of retinal and non-retinal signals in the human visual cortex, providing evidence for a perceptual representation that incorporates extraretinal information.

High-resolution foveal imaging and micro-psychophysics reveal that the human oculomotor system finely adjusts drift motion of the eye in an acuity task to enhance retinal sampling, achieving sub-cell resolution.
