This study shows rats can control a brain-computer interface using covert reinforcement by stimulating their own reward networks, enabling precise neural signal modulation without external rewards.

The paper shows that spinal cord activity in macaques lacks rotational dynamics during an alternating isometric task, unlike motor cortex activity.

The paper investigates the spatial distribution of cortical output zones in macaque monkeys that affect specific combinations of forelimb muscles using single-pulse intracortical microstimulation.

The paper introduces an optogenetics and electrophysiology platform for NHPs to enable long-term, multi-modal neural studies in behavioral experiments.

This study compares cortical potentials evoked by cervical vagus and trans-auricular nerve stimulation in nonhuman primates, finding that cVNS produces more robust responses with distinct parameter effects.

The paper extends the VERTEX tool to simulate diverse neural stimulation techniques, including electric and optogenetic methods, enabling comprehensive testing of stimulation protocols.

The paper investigates synaptic interactions in primate motor cortex, finding that excitatory connections are widespread while inhibitory connections are columnar and superficial-to-deep.

This paper extends single-input sample-and-hold networks to two inputs with varying commonality, showing attractor states depend on hidden unit input-output functions.

The paper analyzes neural dynamics in macaque motor cortex across behavioral states using LFP and spike data, finding distinct frequency band patterns and coupling during different states.

This study examines how oscillatory brain activity changes during visuomotor tasks, finding that coherence increases in specific frequency bands, suggesting roles in sensorimotor integration and attention.

This study examines how cortical neurons in awake primates respond to intracortical microstimulation, revealing complex dynamics including excitatory responses and inhibitory periods.

This study shows that movement-gated electrical stimulation combined with repeated movement use strengthens motor-cortical connections in monkeys, supporting use-dependent rehabilitation for injury recovery.

The paper quantifies spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) in primate motor cortex using paired stimulation and single neuron responses, finding that potentiation occurs only when the second stimulus precedes the response.

This study examines how brain state affects cortical responses to vagus nerve stimulation in non-human primates, finding that certain components of the response vary with brain state and stimulation frequency.

The paper develops an integrate-and-fire spiking neural network model that simulates cortical plasticity induced by four conditioning protocols in non-human primates.

This study investigates how anodal and cathodal tDCS affects cortical neuron activity in awake macaques, finding dose- and polarity-dependent changes in spike rates and network dynamics.

This study shows that the timing of hemodynamic initial-dip and response better reflects spiking activity than amplitude in anesthetized monkeys.

This study identifies the initial-dip in neuroimaging signals as primarily driven by a decrease in total-hemoglobin, coupled to localized spiking activity.
