Vision, choice, action and behavioural engagement arise from neuronal activity that may be
distributed across brain regions. Here we delineate the spatial distribution of neurons …

Perceptual decisions rely on learned associations between sensory evidence and
appropriate actions, involving the filtering and integration of relevant inputs to prepare and …

During decision making, neurons in multiple brain regions exhibit responses that are
correlated with decisions,,,,,. However, it remains uncertain whether or not various forms of …

The posterior parietal cortex exhibits choice-selective activity during perceptual decision-
making tasks,,,,,,,,–. However, it is not known how this selective activity arises from the …

Behaviour often depends on the ability to make categorical judgements about sensory
information acquired over time. Such judgements require a comparison of the evidence …

During perceptual decisions, the activity of sensory neurons correlates with a subject's
percept, even when the physical stimulus is identical,,,,,,,,. The origin of this correlation is …

Individual neurons in many cortical regions have been found to encode specific, identifiable
features of the environment or body that pertain to the function of the region,–. However, in …

Cognitive control guides behaviour by controlling what, when, and how information is
represented in the brain. For example, attention controls sensory processing; top-down …

The computations performed by local neural populations, such as a cortical layer, are
typically inferred from anatomical connectivity and observations of neural activity. Here we …

Single-neuron activity in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is tuned to mixtures of multiple task-
related aspects. Such mixed selectivity is highly heterogeneous, seemingly disordered and …
