The cortex represents information across widely varying timescales,,,,. For instance, sensory
cortex encodes stimuli that fluctuate over few tens of milliseconds,, whereas in association …

Under uncertainty, the brain uses previous knowledge to transform sensory inputs into the
percepts on which decisions are based. When the uncertainty lies in the timing of sensory …

Highlights•Behavioral variables have been decoded from multiple brain areas and diverse
interactions between areas have been described.•Leveraging simultaneous population …

When trained monkeys discriminate the temporal structure of two sequential vibrotactile
stimuli, dorsal premotor cortex (DPC) showed high heterogeneity among its neuronal …

The problem of neural coding in perceptual decision making revolves around two
fundamental questions:(i) How are the neural representations of sensory stimuli related to …

Sucrose's sweet intensity is one attribute contributing to the overconsumption of high-energy
palatable foods. However, it is not known how sucrose intensity is encoded and used to …

Previous studies have demonstrated the importance of the primary sensory cortex for the
detection, discrimination, and awareness of visual stimuli, but it is unknown how neuronal …

Perception is influenced by sensory stimulation, prior knowledge, and contextual cues,
which collectively contribute to the emergence of perceptual biases. However, the precise …

It is controversial whether covariation between neuronal activity and perceptual choice (ie,
choice correlation) reflects the functional readout of sensory signals. Here, we combined …

Learning to associate unambiguous sensory cues with rewarded choices is known to be
mediated by dopamine (DA) neurons. However, little is known about how these neurons …
