In recent decades, the study of exosome biology has gained growing interest, representing
an active area of cancer research with many potential clinical applications. Exosomes are …

… [(e)–(g)] Dynamics inferred by each level of the tree structure provide a multi-scale view.
The most detailed view in (g) exhibits one saddle (cyan) and two stable fixed points (black). (h) …

… The cells were visualized by infrared differential interference contrast videomicroscopy
using a Newvicon camera (C2400, Hamamatsu City, Japan) and an infrared filter (RG9, Schott …

Highlights • Metastable activity is increasingly being observed in many cortical areas and in
a variety of tasks. • Metastable activity is correlated with sensory and cognitive processes …

Single-trial analyses of ensemble activity in alert animals demonstrate that cortical circuits
dynamics evolve through temporal sequences of metastable states. Metastability has been …

… Note that since both a N and b N scale as N when N is large, in general g N ~ 1 N for large
N… (G) Distribution of pair-wise correlations in simultaneously recorded ensembles (black and …

… The experiments of this study were performed on eight female Long–Evans rats (250–350
g). Animals were maintained on a 12 h light/dark cycle with ad libitum food and water diet, …

Rate models are often used to study the behavior of large networks of spiking neurons. Here
we propose a procedure to derive rate models that take into account the fluctuations of the …

Sensory stimuli can be recognized more rapidly when they are expected. This phenomenon
depends on expectation affecting the cortical processing of sensory information. However, …
