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 …

Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) for movement restoration typically decode the user's intent
from neural activity in their primary motor cortex (M1) and use this information to enable …

Animals of the same species exhibit similar behaviours that are advantageously adapted to
their body and environment. These behaviours are shaped at the species level by selection …

Learned movements can be skillfully performed at different paces. What neural strategies
produce this flexibility? Can they be predicted and understood by network modeling? We …

Highlights•Brains can be viewed as a composition of anatomically distinct modules called
regions.•Brain regions interact in complex ways to form a 'network of networks'.•Untangling …

Neural recording technologies increasingly enable simultaneous measurement of neural
activity from multiple brain areas. To gain insight into distributed neural computations, a …

Recent studies have identified rotational dynamics in motor cortex (MC), which many
assume arise from intrinsic connections in MC. However, behavioral and neurophysiological …

Behavior arises from the coordinated activity of numerous anatomically and functionally
distinct brain regions. Modern experimental tools allow unprecedented access to large …

Latent dynamics models have emerged as powerful tools for modeling and interpreting
neural population activity. Recently, there has been a focus on incorporating simultaneously …

Animals rapidly adapt their movements to external perturbations, a process paralleled by
changes in neural activity in the motor cortex. Experimental studies suggest that these …
