Newsome W
J Cogn Neurosci
. 2013 Aug;
7(1):95-100.
PMID: 23961756
Abstract Bill Newsome is a professor in the Department of Neurobiology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He received his B.S. in physics from Stetson University in 1974 and...

Horwitz G, Newsome W
J Neurophysiol
. 2001 Nov;
86(5):2543-58.
PMID: 11698541
We investigated the role of the superior colliculus (SC) in saccade target selection while macaque monkeys performed a direction-discrimination task. The monkeys selected one of two possible saccade targets based...

J Neurophysiol
. 2001 Nov;
86(5):2527-42.
PMID: 11698540
We investigated the role of the superior colliculus (SC) in saccade target selection in rhesus monkeys who were trained to perform a direction-discrimination task. In this task, the monkey discriminated...

Shadlen M, Newsome W
J Neurophysiol
. 2001 Oct;
86(4):1916-36.
PMID: 11600651
We recorded the activity of single neurons in the posterior parietal cortex (area LIP) of two rhesus monkeys while they discriminated the direction of motion in random-dot visual stimuli. The...

J Neurosci
. 2001 Feb;
21(5):1676-97.
PMID: 11222658
We studied the simultaneous activity of pairs of neurons recorded with a single electrode in visual cortical area MT while monkeys performed a direction discrimination task. Previously, we reported the...

Liu J, Newsome W
Curr Biol
. 2000 Sep;
10(16):R598-600.
PMID: 10985377
Whether mental operations can be reduced to the biological properties of the brain has intrigued scientists and philosophers alike for millennia. New microstimulation experiments on awake, behaving monkeys establish causality...

Batista A, Newsome W
Curr Biol
. 2000 Mar;
10(4):R145-8.
PMID: 10704408
Sensory information is acquired in spatial coordinate systems linked to sense organs, yet movement must be executed in coordinate systems linked to motor effector organs. Neurophysiological experiments are yielding new...

Neuron
. 2000 Jan;
24(4):911-7.
PMID: 10624954
The relationship between the neural processing of color and motion information has been a contentious issue in visual neuroscience. We examined this relationship directly by measuring neural responses to isoluminant...

Wandell B, Poirson A, Newsome W, Baseler H, Boynton G, Huk A, et al.
Neuron
. 2000 Jan;
24(4):901-9.
PMID: 10624953
The neural basis for the effects of color and contrast on perceived speed was examined using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Responses to S cone (blue-yellow) and L + M...

Nichols M, Newsome W
Nature
. 1999 Dec;
402(6761 Suppl):C35-8.
PMID: 10591223
Perhaps the deepest mysteries facing the natural sciences concern the higher functions of the central nervous system. Understanding how the brain gives rise to mental experiences looms as one of...
