Sequential sampling from memory underlies perceptual decisions unyoked from actions

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Shadlen | Authors: Prayshita Sharma, Michael Shadlen and S Shushruth | Summary: Perceptual decision-making refers to the class of decisions in which sensory evidence is used to categorize percepts and guide actions. Conventionally, categorical decisions are thought to precede motor actions. However, recent studies in nonhuman primates challenge this assumption — when […]

Granule cells reorient cortical manifolds to separate contexts but preserve their geometry

Kavli Affiliate: Rui Costa | Authors: Martha G Garcia-Garcia, Michal Jozef Wojcik, Srijan Thota, Luke Drake, Amma Otchere, Oluwatobi Akinwale, Lizmaylin Ramos, Rui Ponte Costa and Mark J Wagner | Summary: To learn effectively, animals must generalize across yet distinguish between related contexts. Generalization relies on low-dimensional neural manifolds found throughout neocortex1–3, which accelerate learning […]
