An integrative theory of prefrontal cortex function.
The prefrontal cortex has long been suspected to play an important role in cognitive control, in the ability to orchestrate thought and action in accordance with internal goals. Its neural basis,… Expand
THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX AND COGNITIVE CONTROL
- E. Miller
- 2000
One of the enduring mysteries of brain function concerns the process of cognitive control. How does complex and seemingly wilful behaviour emerge from interactions between millions of neurons? This… Expand

Response to Comment on "Top-Down Versus Bottom-Up Control of Attention in the Prefrontal and Posterior Parietal Cortices"

- 5 October 2007
We reported latencies for target selection based on the earliest neurons to show effects, which Schall et al. mistakenly compare to latencies based on population averages. We show that there are… Expand

The ability to group stimuli into meaningful categories is a fundamental cognitive process. To explore its neural basis, we trained monkeys to categorize computer-generated stimuli as "cats" and… Expand
A Comparison of Primate Prefrontal and Inferior Temporal Cortices during Visual Categorization
- D. Freedman, M. Riesenhuber, T. Poggio, E. Miller
- Psychology, Medicine
- The Journal of Neuroscience
- 15 June 2003
Previous studies have suggested that both the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and inferior temporal cortex (ITC) are involved in high-level visual processing and categorization, but their respective roles… Expand
Integration of what and where in the primate prefrontal cortex.

Top-Down Versus Bottom-Up Control of Attention in the Prefrontal and Posterior Parietal Cortices

- Psychology
- Science
- 30 March 2007
Attention can be focused volitionally by “top-down” signals derived from task demands and automatically by “bottom-up” signals from salient stimuli. The frontal and parietal cortices are involved,… Expand
