Single-trial neural dynamics are dominated by richly varied movements
When experts are immersed in a task, do their brains prioritize task-related activity? Most
efforts to understand neural activity during well-learned tasks focus on cognitive computations …

[HTML][HTML] Pyramidal cell types drive functionally distinct cortical activity patterns during decision-making
Understanding how cortical circuits generate complex behavior requires investigating the
cell types that comprise them. Functional differences across pyramidal neuron (PyN) types …

Effects of neural synchrony on surface EEG
S Musall, V Von Pföstl, A Rauch, NK Logothetis… - Cerebral …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
It has long been assumed that the surface electroencephalography (EEG) signal depends
on both the amplitude and spatial synchronization of underlying neural activity, though …

Movement-related activity dominates cortex during sensory-guided decision making
An animal’s movements and internal state generate an “internal backdrop” of activity that is
dynamically modulated. During behavior, this internal backdrop interacts with signals arising …

[HTML][HTML] Optogenetically stimulating intact rat corticospinal tract post-stroke restores motor control through regionalized functional circuit formation
Current neuromodulatory strategies to enhance motor recovery after stroke often target large
brain areas non-specifically and without sufficient understanding of their interaction with …

Tactile frequency discrimination is enhanced by circumventing neocortical adaptation
Neocortical responses typically adapt to repeated sensory stimulation, improving sensitivity
to stimulus changes, but possibly also imposing limitations on perception. For example, it is …
