Significant experimental, computational, and theoretical work has identified rich structure
within the coordinated activity of interconnected neural populations. An emerging challenge …

Advances in experimental neuroscience have transformed our ability to explore the structure
and function of neural circuits. At the same time, advances in machine learning have …

Animal behavior is shaped by a variety of" internal states"—partially hidden variables that
profoundly shape perception, cognition, and action. The neural basis of internal states, such …

Cognition can be defined as computation over meaningful representations in the brain to
produce adaptive behaviour. There are two views on the relationship between cognition and …

Optogenetics ushered in a revolution in how neuroscientists interrogate brain function.
Because of technical limitations, the majority of optogenetic studies have used low spatial …

The streams of sounds we typically attend to abound in acoustic regularities. Neural
entrainment is seen as an important mechanism that the listening brain exploits to attune to …

The brain is worthy of study because it is in charge of behavior. A flurry of recent technical
advances in measuring and quantifying naturalistic behaviors provide an important …

INTRODUCTION The pattern of light that strikes the eyes is processed and re-represented
via patterns of neural activity in a “deep” series of six interconnected cortical brain areas …

A major shift is happening within neurophysiology: a population doctrine is drawing level
with the single-neuron doctrine that has long dominated the field. Population-level ideas …

A central goal of neuroscience is to understand the representations formed by brain activity
patterns and their connection to behaviour. The classic approach is to investigate how …
