Sufficiency of ITD for (biased) human auditory azimuthal perception

The paper investigates whether internalized spatial percepts from ITD cues can predict external sound localization, finding consistent azimuth estimates despite the perceptual mismatch.

Low noise HRTFs and delay line corrections are detrimental to the prediction of ITD discrimination thresholds from environmental statistics

The paper shows that using naturalistic high-noise HRTFs and not applying delay line corrections improves predictions of ITD discrimination thresholds from environmental statistics.

ACE2 interaction networks in COVID-19: a physiological framework for prediction of outcome in patients with cardiovascular risk factors

The paper characterizes ACE2 interaction networks in SARS-CoV-2 infection, identifies key genes and miRNAs associated with cardiovascular risk factors, and predicts risk groups for COVID-19 outcomes.

Natural ITD statistics predict human auditory spatial perception

The paper shows that natural statistics of interaural time differences (ITD) influence human spatial perception by shaping the neural code for sound localization.

Reactivation of time cell sequences in the hippocampus

This study observes reactivation of time cell sequences in the hippocampus of rats during reward consumption, suggesting a role in organizing temporal order for episodic memory.

On information metrics for spatial coding

This paper evaluates spatial coding metrics in hippocampal neurons, finding that existing metrics correlate less with spatial decoding accuracy than the original mutual information metric.
