Edoardo Boncinelli was my professor during my BA in Philosophy, and his course—an introduction to the brain for philosophers—changed my life forever. Thanks to him I became interested in neuroscience. I cherish his memory as both a great scientist and a remarkable human being.

Human V4 size predicts crowding distance - Nature Communications Across 49 observers, we found large variations in crowding distance and retinotopic map size. These measures covary, conserving a 1.4-mm cortical crowding distance in the human V4 map. This links the ...
