Despite significant progress in understanding neural coding, it remains unclear how the
coordinated activity of large populations of neurons relates to what an observer actually …

Neurophysiological differentiation (ND), a measure of the number of distinct activity states
that a neural population visits over a time interval, has been used as a correlate of …

Our understanding of the human brain relies on advancing noninvasive brain imaging
approaches. Characterization of the function of brain circuitry depends on the …

Nearby neurons in mammalian neocortex demonstrate a great diversity of cell types and
connectivity patterns. The importance of this diversity for computation is not understood …

The brain contains billions of neurons defined by diverse cytoarchitectural, anatomical,
genetic, and functional properties. Sensory encoding and decoding are popular research …

The mammalian visual system consists of several anatomically distinct areas, layers, and
cell types. To understand the role of these subpopulations in visual information processing …

Neurons in sensory areas of the neocortex are known to represent information both about
sensory stimuli and behavioral state, but how these 2 disparate signals are integrated …

Both experimenter-controlled stimuli and stimulus-independent variables impact cortical
neural activity. A major hurdle to understanding neural representation is distinguishing …

Primates can recognize objects embedded in complex natural scenes in a glimpse. Rapid
categorization paradigms have been extensively used to study our core perceptual abilities …

Intrinsic cortical dynamics are thought to underlie trial-to-trial variability of visually evoked
responses in animal models. Understanding their function in the context of sensory …
