The paper maps neural activity in the mouse brainstem during food consumption, showing how different body signals are integrated across spatially clustered neurons.

The paper introduces a scalable variational inference method for estimating low-rank spatio-temporal receptive fields in neural data, showing improved performance over existing estimators.

The paper examines how light adaptation affects the spatiotemporal receptive field structures of retinal ganglion cell types in rats, finding that their relative organization is largely preserved.

The paper shows that ignoring correlated noise in retinal ganglion cells leads to poor decoding performance under moonlight conditions.
