@gerardosalvato et al. show that memory can support attention even in the presence of focal hippocampal pathology, revealing how adaptive cognitive processes are maintained when key memory structures are compromised, per study in @PNASNews: ow.ly/vz0p50ZkKmr

A recent paper in @NatureNeuro raised concerns about the lesion network mapping method. Our team of 16 coauthors analyzed >1000 lesions and 34 symptoms and found that "The methodological foundations of lesion network mapping remain sound" biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…
