In section 2, I introduce the cognitive neuroscientific research program that aims to map brain structures talk in cognitive neuroscience is that realizing structures are the neurological or neurophysiological properties of brain areas (networks) investigated in neuroscience, and realized functions are the cognitive capacities, structure-function mappings, and cognitive-neuroanatomical area names The degeneracy hypothesis can explain these puzzling processing differences and data showing undeniable cross-subject specialization of function in cortex that have made Lashley's hypotheses untenable. "brain areas" are individuated partly by the cognitive function they subserve may be macaque), and thus are assuming that cognitive functions are not differently realized in the two species" (190). I explain below, they continue: "Identifying brain areas through neuroimaging depends critically on the cognitive tasks subjects are asked to perform; thus, the possibility of multiple realizability is restricted at the outset" (190). cognitive function that can be mapped to the lesioned areas. ./cache/work_lkiarp4k6zgctnxhfgpgctr5du.pdf ./txt/work_lkiarp4k6zgctnxhfgpgctr5du.txt
