A Map of the Imagined: Topographic Principles of Sensory Simulation in the Human Parietal Cortex

The cerebral cortex forms a structured landscape in which the location of brain regions shapes their cognitive functions.

The cerebral cortex forms a structured landscape in which the location of brain regions shapes their cognitive functions. Based on this cognitive topography, brain regions are not isolated modules but embedded within a macroscale terrain where both cortical geometry and…
