The subthalamic nucleus (STN) supports action selection by inhibiting all motor programs
except the desired one. Recent evidence suggests that STN can also cancel an already …

The basal ganglia (BG) make up a prominent nexus between visual and motor-related brain
regions. In contrast to the BG's well-established roles in movement control and value-based …

The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is hypothesized to play a central role in the rapid stopping of
movement in reaction to a stop signal. Single-unit recording evidence for such a role is …

Pupil size reflects a proxy for neural activity associated with global luminance, arousal and
cognitive processing. Microsaccades are also modulated by arousal and cognitive …

Cortico-basal ganglia interactions continuously shape the way we move. Ideas about how
this circuit works are based largely on models those consider only firing rate as the …

Within the cortico basal ganglia (BG)–thalamic network, the direct and indirect pathways
comprise of projections from the cortex to the striatum (STR), whereas the hyperdirect …

Behavioral strategies require gating of premature responses to optimize outcomes. Several
brain areas control impulsive actions, but the neuronal basis of natural variation in …

Despite the hard-wired structural connectivity of neural pathways, neural circuits allow
context-dependent reactions to sensory cues by triggering the desired movement. Cortico …
