The paper investigates decision-related signals in primate visual cortex using LFPs, finding that high-frequency LFPs correlate with decisions and are causally involved, while lower frequencies reflect non-causal feedback and trial history.

This study analyzes 59 macaque studies to assess factors influencing choice probability, finding consistent patterns across tasks and regions with exceptions in bistable percepts and area V1.

This study shows that mid-superior temporal sulcus (mSTS) neurons in macaques encode spatial context and behavioral state during natural, unconstrained exploration.

The paper investigates how inactivating primate area V4 affects visual learning, finding that simpler perceptual readouts are favored over optimal information extraction.

The paper investigates how brain stimulation affects long-range projections in non-human primates and finds that these projections are more strongly influenced by stimulation than other cells.

The paper shows that choice probability in primate visual cortex reflects movement selection rather than direct decision causation, using a visual motion discrimination task.

This study shows that perceptual learning in humans is biased by cortical asymmetries, with suboptimal learning strategies observed when training on motion stimuli with asymmetric representations.
