Working memory (WM) is characterized by the ability to maintain stable representations over
time; however, neural activity associated with WM maintenance can be highly dynamic. We …

Perceptual decisions are thought to depend on the activation of task-relevant neurons, whose
activity is often correlated in time. Here, we examined how the temporal structure of shared …

Whether the auditory and visual systems use a similar coding strategy to represent motion
direction is an open question. We investigated this question in the barn owl's optic tectum ( OT …

Many cognitive functions are thought to rely on higher brain regions, in particular the prefrontal
cortex. However, neural processing in prefrontal cortex can be notoriously complex, both …

Neurophysiological experiments with monkeys have demonstrated that working memory (WM)
is associated with persistent neural activity in multiple brain regions, such as the …

In order to investigate the neural processes underlying figure-ground segregation on the
basis of motion, we studied the responses of neurones in the second visual area (V2) of …

… GA-M and IG-A performed spinal cord surgery and oleic acid application, DF, DW and JM
did the immunohistochenical experiments, analyzed the data and prepared the figures. JM …

We wondered whether the adaptive firing threshold of LIF neurons with SFA affects the
autocorre-14 lation function of their firing activity—termed intrinsic time scale in (Wasmuht et al., …

Food and predators are the most noteworthy objects for the basic survival of wild animals,
and both are often deviant in both spatial and temporal domains and quickly attract an …

We are continuously bombarded by external inputs of various timescales from the environment.
How does the brain process this multitude of timescales? Recent resting state studies …
