Kavli Affiliate: Vikaas Sohal | Authors: Kathleen Cho, Jingcheng Shi and Vikaas Singh Sohal | Summary: Changes in patterns of activity within the medial prefrontal cortex enable rodents, non-human primates, and humans to update their behavior to adapt to changes in the environment, e.g., during cognitive tasks1–5. Within medial prefrontal cortex, inhibitory neurons expressing parvalbumin […]

Dichter, Satrajit Ghosh, Lawrence Niu, Ivan Soltesz, Karel Svoboda, Loren Frank and Kristofer E. Bouchard | Summary: The neurophysiology of cells and tissues are monitored electrophysiologically and optically in diverse experiments and species, ranging from flies to humans. Understanding […]

Huang, Arturo Alvarez-Buylla and Shawn F Sorrells | Summary: The entorhinal cortex (EC) is a highly-interconnected hub for multisensory integration and memory processing1-3, containing diverse neuronal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Yuanning Li, Gopala K Anumanchipalli, Abdelrahman Mohamed, Junfeng Lu, Jinsong Wu and Edward F Chang | Summary: The human auditory system extracts rich linguistic abstractions from the speech signal. Traditional approaches to understand this complex process have used classical linear feature encoding models, with limited success. Artificial neural networks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniele Canzio | Authors: Lea Kiefer, Gabrielle Isabelle F. Servito, Sandy M Rajkumar, Jennifer Langen, Anna Chiosso, Alexander Buckley, Elizabeth S. Cha, Adan Horta, Michael H Mui and Daniele Canzio | Summary: Clustered Protocadherin (Pcdh) proteins act as cell-surface recognition barcodes for neural circuit formation. Neurites expressing the same barcode repel each other, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristofer Bouchard | Authors: Jesse A Livezey, Pratik Singh Sachdeva, Maximilian E Dougherty, Mathew T Summers and Kristofer E Bouchard | Summary: The brain represents the world through the activity of neural populations. Correlated variability across simultaneously recorded neurons (noise correlations) has been observed across cortical areas and experimental paradigms. Many studies have […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip Starr | Authors: James J. Sermon, Maria Olaru, Juan Anso, Simon Little, Rafal Bogacz, Philip A. Starr, Timothy Denison and Benoit Duchet | Summary: Background Entrainment of brain oscillations has been hypothesised as a potential mechanism of neuromodulation. While neuromodulation has been shown to be an effective therapy for a variety of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Loren Frank | Authors: Abhilasha Joshi, Eric L. Denovellis, Abhijith Mankili, Yagiz Meneksedag, Thomas Davidson, Anna K Gillespie, Jennifer Ann Guidera, Demetris Roumis and Loren M. Frank | Summary: The hippocampus is a vertebrate brain structure that expresses spatial representations1 and is critical for navigation2,3. Navigation in turn intricately depends on locomotion; however, […]
