Two theoretical ideas have emerged recently with the ambition to provide a unifying
functional explanation of neural population coding and dynamics: predictive coding and …

Some people doubt that the concept of developmental dyslexia (DD) is useful at all because
the phonological weaknesses seen in DD cannot be distinguished from those found in every …

Genetically encoded voltage indicators are emerging tools for monitoring voltage dynamics
with cell-type specificity. However, current indicators enable a narrow range of applications …

Patients with retinal degeneration lose sight due to the gradual demise of photoreceptors.
Electrical stimulation of surviving retinal neurons provides an alternative route for the …

A motion sequence may be represented as a single pattern in x–y–t space; a velocity of
motion corresponds to a three-dimensional orientation in this space. Motion sinformation …
