This study quantifies cortical dislamination using electrical pattern analysis in an animal model and links it to neural dynamics and excitation-inhibition balance.

This paper demonstrates that using UMAP improves spike sorting performance, efficiency, and robustness in both synthetic and experimental data.

This study investigates how the rodent entopeduncular nucleus codes kinematic, reward, and difficulty parameters during locomotion, finding multiplexed representations and spatio-temporal coding over kinematic coding.

This study examines how primate ventral premotor cortex processes time during interval comparison and categorization tasks, revealing distinct neural dynamics for each task.

The paper investigates how neurons in the primate ventral premotor cortex process and integrate tactile and acoustic stimuli during a bimodal detection task, revealing distinct neural dynamics for sensory processing and decision maintenance.

The paper shows that the second somatosensory cortex segregates sensory and transformed signals into orthogonal subspaces during a task, with transformed encoding being context-dependent.

This study examines how thalamocortical interactions shape neural variability during stimulus perception in monkeys, revealing distinct dynamics across brain regions.

The paper investigates whether neurons in the primary somatosensory cortex encode tactile and acoustic stimuli during a bimodal detection task, finding they are unimodal and functionally distinct.

This study identifies a categorical decision signal in dorsal premotor cortex (DPC) during a vibrotactile categorization task, showing sustained activity across task phases and consistent responses across stimulus attributes.

This study shows dopamine firing encodes reward prediction errors and motivation during a working memory task in monkeys, with distinct roles for phasic and tonic activity.

The paper identifies that secondary somatosensory cortex (S2) neurons exhibit both invariant sensory responses and perceptual correlates, suggesting S2 is critical for converting touch into perception.

The paper examines directional interactions between somatosensory thalamo-cortical circuits during tactile perception in monkeys, finding increased feedforward activity during stimulus presence and bidirectional interactions with high stimulus amplitude.

The paper examines how internal bias influences dopamine neuron activity during decision-making tasks in monkeys, showing bias affects phasic activity and reward prediction errors but not delay period activity.
