Flexible behavior requires the creation, updating, and expression of memories to depend on
context. While the neural underpinnings of each of these processes have been intensively …

The brain plans and executes volitional movements. The underlying patterns of neural
population activity have been explored in the context of movements of the eyes, limbs …

Neurons in frontal cortex exhibit diverse selectivity representing sensory, motor and
cognitive variables during decision-making. The neural circuit basis for this complex …

Working memory—the brain's ability to internalize information and use it flexibly to guide
behaviour—is an essential component of cognition. Although activity related to working …

Despite rapid advances in machine learning tools, the majority of neural decoding
approaches still use traditional methods. Modern machine learning tools, which are versatile …

Decisions are held in memory until enacted, which makes them potentially vulnerable to
distracting sensory input. Gating of information flow from sensory to motor areas could …

Neural mechanisms of perceptual decision making have been extensively studied in
experimental settings that mimic stable environments with repeating stimuli, fixed rules, and …

Understanding how cortical circuits generate complex behavior requires investigating the
cell types that comprise them. Functional differences across pyramidal neuron (PyN) types …

Neural activity underlying short-term memory is maintained by interconnected networks of
brain regions. It remains unknown how brain regions interact to maintain persistent activity …

The claustrum, a subcortical nucleus forming extensive connections with the neocortex, has
been implicated in sensory selection. Sensory-evoked claustrum activity is thought to …
