The paper investigates how basal ganglia activity encodes speech production and ambient noise levels in humans, finding distinct neural populations for each.

This study shows that neurons in primate globus pallidus and motor cortex encode ordinal position across motor sequences rather than just sequence boundaries.

The paper compares movement-related neuronal activity in cerebellar- and basal ganglia-recipient regions of the macaque thalamus, finding distinct temporal and directional encoding patterns.

This study examines how parkinsonism affects movement-related activity in the GPi of macaques, finding altered timing and magnitude of neuronal responses.

The paper investigates how subthalamic nucleus neurons encode phoneme and sequence features of speech in Parkinson's patients during deep brain stimulation.

The paper introduces a residuals method to detect oscillations in neuronal spike trains by removing refractory period distortion, outperforming shuffling in synthetic and single-unit data.

This study investigates how neurons in the primate subthalamic nucleus represent value during self-control tasks, finding dynamic integration of reward desirability and delay.

This study identifies hyperdirect connectivity between opercular speech regions and the subthalamic nucleus in humans using intracranial recordings during deep brain stimulation.

The paper examines neural activity during a reaching task in macaques and finds that basal ganglia-thalamic communication does not follow standard gating or rebound models.

The paper examines cortico-basal-ganglia communication in Parkinson's patients, finding that gamma phase coupling between STN spikes and cortical activity precedes fast reaction times and is modulated by movement direction.

The paper examines high gamma activity in the subthalamic nucleus and sensorimotor cortex during speech production, finding articulator-specific signals in both regions with similar timing but different topographical organization.

The paper examines subthalamic nucleus neuron activity during speech production, finding distinct firing rate changes related to speech planning and execution.

This study examines STN activity and subthalamic-cortical dynamics during force generation, finding that STN gamma activity predicts cortical activity and contributes to motor planning and execution.
