Kavli Affiliate: Adam S. Charles and Patrick Kanold | Authors: Liang Xiang, Mingxuan Wang, Patrick O. Kanold and Adam Charles | Summary: Neural population activity is often stereotyped into recurring activity patterns, i.e., neural motifs, which can be seen as the fundamental building blocks in sensory processing and cognition. In this work we study the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cynthia F. Moss | Authors: Gowri Somasekhar, Ninad B Kothari, Cynthia F Moss and Melville Wohlgemuth | Summary: To successfully execute natural tasks, animals must continuously monitor and integrate dynamic sensory information to guide behavior. While this process – known as active sensing – is fundamental to goal-directed behavior, the mechanisms by which […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patrick Kanold | Authors: HiJee Kang, Travis Babola and Patrick O Kanold | Summary: Sensory information is represented by small neuronal ensembles in sensory cortices. Neuronal activity shows high trial-by-trial variability in that repeated presentation of the same stimulus, e. g., multiple presentations of the same sound activate differing ensembles in the auditory […]
Kavli Affiliate: Adam S. Charles | Authors: Kyle A. Johnsen, Nathanael A. Cruzado, Zachary C. Menard, Adam A. Willats, Adam S. Charles, Jeffrey E. Markowitz and Christopher J. Rozell | Summary: Systems neuroscience has experienced an explosion of new tools for reading and writing neural activity, enabling exciting new experiments such as all-optical or closed-loop […]

Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Shivam Kalhan, Robin Magnard, Yifeng Cheng and Patricia H. Janak | Summary: In auditory cortex, neural responses to stimuli inside receptive fields (RFs) can be further facilitated by behavioral demands, such as attending to a spatial location. It is less clear how off-RF stimuli modulate neural responses and contribute to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Patricia Janak | Shivam Kalhan, Robin Magnard, Yifeng Cheng and Patricia H. Janak | Summary: Intelligent behavior necessitates an adaptive integration of feedback. It is well-known that animals asymmetrically learn from positive and negative feedback. While asymmetrical learning is a robust behavioral effect, the latent computations behind how animals represent their environments and […]
