Gelbard-Sagiv, Magidov, et al. pharmacologically down- and up-regulated noradrenaline (NE) signaling while subjects performed visual detection and discrimination tasks. They demonstrate that NE modulates perceptual sensitivity and accuracy, as well as late visually evoked EEG and fMRI responses, suggesting a key enabling role for NE in perceptual awareness.
