Neuroimaging research has been at the forefront of concerns regarding the failure of
experimental findings to replicate. In the study of brain-behavior relationships, past failures …

Neuroscientists today can measure activity from more neurons than ever before, and are
facing the challenge of connecting these brain-wide neural recordings to computation and …

We propose and empirically support a parsimonious account of intrinsic, brain-wide
spatiotemporal organization arising from traveling waves linked to arousal. We hypothesize …

Neural activity and behavior are both notoriously variable, with responses differing widely
between repeated presentation of identical stimuli or trials. Recent results in humans and …

Visceral sensory pathways mediate homeostatic reflexes, the dysfunction of which leads to
many neurological disorders. The Bezold–Jarisch reflex (BJR), first described, in 1867, is a …

Recent studies in mice have shown that orofacial behaviors drive a large fraction of neural
activity across the brain. To understand the nature and function of these signals, we need …

Sensory areas are spontaneously active in the absence of sensory stimuli. This
spontaneous activity has long been studied; however, its functional role remains largely …

The cortical population code is pervaded by activity patterns evoked by movement, but it
remains largely unknown how such signals relate to natural behavior or how they might …

Interoception, the sense of internal bodily signals, is essential for physiological homeostasis,
cognition, and emotions. While human insular cortex (InsCtx) is implicated in interoception …

Summary Ultra-slow,∼ 0.1-Hz variations in the oxygenation level of brain blood are widely
used as an fMRI-based surrogate of" resting-state" neuronal activity. The temporal …
