The brain is organized as a network of highly specialized networks of spiking neurons. To
exploit such a modular architecture for computation, the brain has to be able to regulate the …

The cortex processes stimuli through a distributed network of specialized brain areas. This
processing requires mechanisms that can route neuronal activity across weakly connected …

Asynchronous activity in balanced networks of excitatory and inhibitory neurons is believed
to constitute the primary medium for the propagation and transformation of information in the …

The mammalian brain exhibits profuse interregional connectivity. How information flow is
rapidly and flexibly switched among connected areas remains poorly understood. Task …

Transmission of signals within the brain is essential for cognitive function, but it is not clear
how neural circuits support reliable and accurate signal propagation over a sufficiently large …

Anatomic connections between brain areas affect information flow between neuronal circuits
and the synchronization of neuronal activity. However, such structural connectivity does not …

Brain circuitry processes information by rapidly and selectively engaging functional neuronal
networks. The dynamic formation of networks is often evident in rhythmically synchronized …

Unraveling how brain regions communicate is crucial for understanding how the brain
processes external and internal information. Neuronal oscillations within and across brain …

Despite extensive work on the behavioral and physiological correlates of brain rhythms, it is
still unresolved whether they have any important function in the mammalian cerebral cortex …

Perception, cognition and behavior rely on flexible communication between microcircuits in
distinct cortical regions. The mechanisms underlying rapid information rerouting between …
