During learning, the brain modifies synapses to improve behaviour. In the cortex, synapses
are embedded within multilayered networks, making it difficult to determine the effect of an …

Simulating biological synaptic functionalities through artificial synaptic devices opens up an
innovative way to overcome the von Neumann bottleneck at the device level. Artificial …

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 …

The state of the brain and body constantly varies on rapid and slow timescales. These
variations contribute to the apparent noisiness of sensory responses at both the neural and …

Attention is critical to high-level cognition and attention deficits are a hallmark of neurologic
and neuropsychiatric disorders. Although years of research indicates that distinct …

Working memory is widely considered to be limited in capacity, holding a fixed, small
number of items, such as Miller's' magical number'seven or Cowan's four. It has recently …

Re-entrant or feedback pathways between cortical areas carry rich and varied information
about behavioural context, including attention, expectation, perceptual tasks, working …

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 …

The mechanistic link between neural circuit activity and behavior remains unclear. While
manipulating cortical activity can bias certain behaviors and elicit artificial percepts, some …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …
