Neural Dynamics Underlying False Alarms in Extrastriate Cortex

This study investigates how neural dynamics in V4 correlate with false alarms in a visual change-detection task, finding that stability in latent dynamics affects perceptual behavior and decision-making.

Distractor anticipation during working memory is associated with theta and beta oscillations across spatial scales

This study identifies theta and beta oscillations across spatial scales as correlates of distractor anticipation during working memory maintenance in monkeys.

Automated customization of large-scale spiking network models to neuronal population activity

This paper introduces SNOPS, a method to automatically customize spiking network models to match large-scale neuronal recordings, revealing limitations of current models.

Dynamic attention signaling in V4: relation to excitatory/inhibitory cell class and population coupling

The paper investigates how attention affects neurons in V4, finding differences in attention effects based on neuron type and functional connectivity.

EEG signals index a global signature of arousal embedded in neuronal population recordings

The paper links EEG signals to a global arousal signature in neuronal population recordings during a change detection task.

Altered Task Demands Lead to a Division of Labor for Sensory and Cognitive Processing in the Middle Temporal Area

The paper shows that task demands alter sensory and cognitive processing in MT neurons, leading to a division of labor between subpopulations.

The eyes reflect an internal cognitive state hidden in the population activity of cortical neurons

The paper shows that eye movements correlate with a slow neural activity drift across visual and prefrontal cortex, indicating a global brain state related to arousal.

Bridging neuronal correlations and dimensionality reduction

The paper establishes mathematical and empirical links between pairwise neuronal correlations and dimensionality reduction metrics, showing that attention-related changes in mean pairwise correlation arise from distinct population-wide covariability shifts.

Slow drift of neural activity as a signature of impulsivity in macaque visual and prefrontal cortex

The paper identifies slow neural activity drift in macaque visual and prefrontal cortex as an impulsivity signal influencing perceptual decisions over time.
