Neural representations of visual memory in inferotemporal cortex reveal a generalizable framework for translating between spikes and field potentials

The paper shows that alignment between spikes and high-gamma LFPs depends on the coding scheme, using visual memory variables in macaques.

Sharpened visual memory representations are reflected in inferotemporal cortex

The paper shows that inferotemporal cortex, like the hippocampus, reflects sharpened visual memory representations, contributing to visual memory fidelity.

A two-stage algorithm underlies the transformation from vision to familiarity in the primate brain

The paper identifies a two-stage algorithm in primate brain regions that transforms visual input into familiarity, with distinct roles for inferotemporal cortex and hippocampus.

The representation of estimated mood in primate anterior insular cortex

The paper develops a mood model to predict human happiness during a gambling task and finds similar mood-related neural activity in monkey anterior insular cortex.
