We review the central tenets and neuroanatomical basis of the global neuronal workspace
(GNW) hypothesis, which attempts to account for the main scientific observations regarding …

We have come to recognize the brain as a predictive organ, anticipating attributes of the
incoming sensory stimulation to guide perception and action in the service of adaptive …

In this paper, we propose a conceptually simple but very effective attention module for
Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets). In contrast to existing channel-wise and spatial …

I propose that synchronization affects communication between neuronal groups. Gamma-
band (30–90 Hz) synchronization modulates excitation rapidly enough that it escapes the …

Cortical gain regulation allows neurons to respond adaptively to changing inputs. Neural
gain is modulated by internal and external influences, including attentional and arousal …

Neural activity and behavior are both notoriously variable, with responses differing widely
between repeated presentation of identical stimuli or trials. Recent results in humans and …

Prefrontal cortex is thought to have a fundamental role in flexible, context-dependent
behaviour, but the exact nature of the computations underlying this role remains largely …

The brain's response to sensory input is strikingly modulated by behavioral state. Notably,
the visual response of mouse primary visual cortex (V1) is enhanced by locomotion, a …

Time is a universal psychological dimension, but time perception has often been studied
and discussed in relative isolation. Increasingly, researchers are searching for unifying …

This review focuses on covert attention and how it alters early vision. I explain why attention
is considered a selective process, the constructs of covert attention, spatial endogenous and …
