Distinct cortical encoding of acoustic and electrical cochlear stimulation

Ariel Edward Hight, Michele N. Insanally, Julia Scarpa, Yuko Tamaoki, Rohit Makol, Yew-Song Cheng, Michael Trumpis, Jonathan Viventi, Mario A. Svirsky, Robert C. Froemke

The paper investigates how cortical neurons represent acoustic and electrical cochlear implant stimulation in deafened rats, finding distinct spatio-temporal response profiles.

Contributions and synaptic basis of diverse cortical neuron responses to task performance

Michele N. Insanally, Badr F. Albanna, Jack Toth, Brian DePasquale, Saba Shokat Fadaei, Trisha Gupta, Kishore V. Kuchibhotla, Kanaka Rajan, Robert C. Froemke

The paper shows that diverse neural response profiles in auditory cortex arise from synaptic plasticity and contribute differently to task performance.

Nominally non-responsive frontal and sensory cortical cells encode task-relevant variables via ensemble consensus-building

Michele N. Insanally, Ioana Carcea, Rachel E. Field, Chris C. Rodgers, Brian DePasquale, Kanaka Rajan, Michael R. DeWeese, Badr F. Albanna, Robert C. Froemke

The paper identifies task-relevant information in nominally non-responsive neurons using a spike-timing-based algorithm in behaving rats.
