The paper identifies the frontal eye field (FEF) as leading a distributed circuit for abstract categorical decisions by analyzing neural activity in monkeys during a visual motion-categorization task.

The paper shows that diverse neuronal firing rates reduce the dimensionality of trial-to-trial covariability in population responses across multiple species.

The paper shows that gamma oscillations in primate visual cortex decrease with small stimulus discontinuities, suggesting gamma reflects excitation-inhibition balance.
