Expression of MAP1a and MAP1b in the ganglionic eminence and the internal capsule of the human fetal brain.
2001
The expression of microtubule-associated proteins 1a and 1b (MAP1a and 1b) were investigated in two transient structures, the ganglionic eminence (GE) being a prominent part of the telencephalic proliferative zone and the perireticular nucleus (PR) within the internal capsule (IC). Anti-MAP1a immunolabels PR neurons from 18 weeks of gestation (wg) onwards, whereas anti-MAP1b immunolabels long IC fibers between 18 and 22 wg. MAP1b is further present in thalamic fibers that seem to terminate at the medial margin of the GE, in a moderate number of cells of the GE and its medial extension, the gangliothalamic body (GTB). From 26 to 33 wg MAP1b is expressed in short fiber bundles of the IC, a fe…
The bilateral field advantage effect in memory precision.
2018
Previous research has demonstrated that visual working memory performance is better when visual items are allocated in both left and right visual fields than within only one hemifield. This phenomenon is called the bilateral field advantage (BFA). The BFA is thought to be driven by an enhanced probability of storage, rather than by greater precision. In the present experiments, we sought to test whether the BFA can also extend to precision when the parameters of the task are modified. Using a moderate number of to-be-remembered items and 400 ms presentation time, we found better precision in the bilateral condition than in the unilateral condition. The classic BFA was still found in the for…
