      Hi,

      Haha, what a great question this is ! I am very much interested in how well we pay attention to things enables us to 1) simply see, but also to 2) learn information in real environments. This function(s) – of focusing, and refocusing, and shifting attention to a location in space where important information seemed to have been presented is supported by a network involving frontal cortex and parietal cortex. So I always bear those two (large) areas in my mind! 🙂
