Research output: Contribution to journal › Short survey › peer-review

Abstract

By demonstrating that fMRI responses in human MT+ increase linearly with motion coherence and comparing these responses with slopes of single-neuron firing rates in monkey MT, a new paper provides the best evidence so far that fMRI responses are proportional to firing rates.
