© 2018, The Author(s). Besides decades of research showing the role of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in memory and the encoding of associations, the neural substrates underlying these functions remain unknown. We identified single neurons in the hum... Read More about Encoding of long-term associations through neural unitization in the human medial temporal lobe.

Parsing a mental program: fixation-related brain signatures of unitary operations and routines in natural visual search (2018)
Journal Article
Kamienkowski, J. E., Varatharajah, A., Sigman, M., & Ison, M. J. (2018). Parsing a mental program: fixation-related brain signatures of unitary operations and routines in natural visual search. NeuroImage, 183, 73-86. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.08.010

Visual search involves a sequence or routine of unitary operations (i.e. fixations) embedded in a larger mental global program. The process can indeed be seen as a program based on a while loop (while the target is not found), a conditional construct...
