Miller Lab graduate student Simon Kornblith publishes a paper in Neuron from work in his old lab. By combining FMRI with electrode recording and stimulation, they found an area in the occipitotemporal cortex that has many scene-selective neurons, the lateral place patch (LPP). By stimulating it, they discover connections to several other cortical areas, including a medial place patch (MPP) in the parahippocampal gyrus. Elegant and important work, Simon, congratulations! Now, get back to work. ?
