Thalamic and cortical signals synergistically represent auditory prediction errors

Claudia Pascovich, Juho Äijälä, Santiago Castro‐Zaballa, Alicia Costa, Alejo Rodríguez-Cattáneo, Pablo Torterolo, Robin A. A. Ince, Tristan Andres Bekinschtein, Andrés Canales‐Johnson

The paper shows that thalamic and cortical signals work together to represent auditory prediction errors, with synergistic interactions that go beyond simple relay.

Modafinil Modulation of Oscillatory and Aperiodic Brain Activity in Rats Across Wakefulness and Subsequent Sleep

Mateo Mendoza, Diego Martin Mateos, Juan Pedro Castro, Verónica Bisagno, Francisco J. Urbano, Pablo Torterolo, Alicia Costa

This study examines how modafinil affects brain activity in rats during wakefulness and sleep, finding increased gamma-band power and altered sleep patterns.

Urethane Anesthesia Exhibits Neurophysiological Correlates of Unconsciousness and is Distinct from Sleep

Alejandra Mondino, Joaqúın González, Duan Li, Diego Martin Mateos, Lucía Osorio, Matías Cavelli, Juan Pedro Castro‐Nin, Diego Serantes, Alicia Costa, Giancarlo Vanini, George A. Mashour, Pablo Torterolo

This study compares electroencephalographic signatures of urethane anesthesia and natural sleep-wake states in rats, finding distinct neurophysiological features in urethane that differentiate it from sleep.

Power and coherence in the EEG of the rat: impact of behavioral states, cortical area, lateralization and light/dark phases

Alejandra Mondino, Matías Cavelli, Joaqúın González, Lucía Osorio, Santiago Castro‐Zaballa, Alicia Costa, Giancarlo Vanini, Pablo Torterolo

The paper analyzes iEEG power and coherence in rats across behavioral states, cortical areas, and light/dark phases, finding state- and area-dependent changes and REM sleep-specific hemispheric differences.
