RESEARCH INTERESTS
Studies of the brain mechanisms of cognitive functions (attention, perception, memory, language, and intelligence). The objective of these studies is to gain better understanding of the dysfunction of the cerebral cortex in neurological and mental illness impairing cognition. Such understanding leads to more effective modes of treatment and rehabilitation.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE
In 1958 Fuster provides the first evidence that the reticular activating system of the brain stem, a neural substrate for arousal from sleep, modulates selective visual attention (Science, 1958). In 1960 he develops one of the first microelectrode methods for single-unit recording. He demonstrates the reticular facilitation of the excitatory as well as inhibitory reactions of neurons in the visual cortex to visual stimuli (Science 1961), an indication of reticular enhancement of visual contrast in the cortex as a result of attention. With Creutzfeldt, at the Munich Max-Planck Institute, he obtains the first intracellular records from cortical cells, and shows a psychophysical power-function between visual stimulus intensity and synaptic potential amplitude in the visual system (Z. vergl. Physiol., 1965). In the late 60's, he develops cryogenic probes for reversible inactivation of cortical areas. With Alexander, he demonstrates a reversible deficit in delayed-response behavior by mild cooling of the prefrontal cortex (Brain Res., 1970).
In 1971 he discovers and describes the first "memory cells" ever found in the primate brain (Science, 1971, J. Neurophysiol., 1973). These are cortical cells that show persistent discharge during the short-term memorization of an item of information for prospective use (working memory). In 1980 he publishes The Prefrontal Cortex. This book, now in its fourth edition, is both a review of research on the subject and a compendium of the author's ideas on the cognitive functions of the frontal lobe. Central among those functions is the temporal organization of behavior, speech, and reasoning. In 1981, Fuster and Jervey discover the first visual memory cells in inferotemporal (IT) cortex (Science 1981; J. Neurosci., 1982). Subsequently, Fuster explores the role of attention in IT neurons during the performance of a memory task requiring the selective extraction of visual features (color or pattern) from complex stimuli. He shows that IT cells are modulated by attention to the visual feature in working memory (J. Neurophysiol., 1990). In the 1990's he and his colleagues discover and analyze the properties of working-memory cells for tactile features in somatosensory cortex (PNAS, 1996, 2000). In 2000, they demonstrate that neurons in the prefrontal cortex integrate information across two different sensory modalities--audition and vision--and across time (Nature, 2000).
In recent years, Fuster and colleagues have been studying the physiological dynamics of working memory in the cerebral cortex. The purpose is to clarify the mechanisms by which the cortex stores and retains information in working memory, a cognitive function of prime importance in the coordination of behavior, speech, and reasoning. For that purpose they have been utilizing the latest and most advanced methods of neuroimaging (NeuroImage, 2005) and neurocomputation (Eur.J.Neurosci, 2005).
As the result of his research findings, Fuster develops and tests the hypothesis that all three forms of memory--that is, short-term memory, working memory, and long-term memory--share the same cortical networks, though in different states. In Memory in the Cerebral Cortex (MIT, 1995) he defends this line of reasoning, proposing that working memory essentially consists of the temporary activation of a cortical network of long-term memory, however updated and reconfigured for present behavioral conditions. In support of these ideas, he and his collaborators conduct functional-imaging studies in humans and monkeys (Cerebral Cortex, 1995). At present, these studies continue with the addition of optical imaging and spectroscopy. In a more recent book, Cortex and Mind: Unifying Cognition (Oxford, 2003), Fuster expands his concepts, beyond memory, to other cognitive functions. He contends that all cognitive functions are based on neural transactions within and between neuronal networks of cognitive representation which he calls cognits (J. Cogn. Neurosci., 2009; Trends Cogn. Sci., 2012).
Fuster's research has wide-ranging implications for elucidating the brain mechanisms of cognition. By gaining better understanding of these mechanisms, we are able to better understand the disorders of cognition at the foundation of many neurological and psychiatric disorders, notably brain stroke, brain trauma, Alzheimer's dementia, and schizophrenia.
