Gamma rhythms in many brain regions, including the primary visual cortex (V1), are thought
to play a role in information processing. Here, we report a surprising finding of 3 narrowband …

The cortical column is one of the fundamental computational circuits in the brain. In order to
understand the role neurons in different layers of this circuit play in cortical function it is …

Sensory processing is distributed among many brain regions that interact via feedforward
and feedback signaling. Neuronal oscillations have been shown to mediate intercortical …

Various subtypes of inhibitory interneurons contact one another to organize cortical
networks. Most cortical inhibitory interneurons express 1 of 3 genes: parvalbumin (PV) …

Gamma oscillation (GAMMA) in the local field potential (LFP) is a synchronized activity
commonly found in many brain regions, and it has been thought as a functional signature of …

Images of visual scenes comprise essential features important for visual cognition of the
brain. The complexity of visual features lies at different levels, from simple artificial patterns …

Both surface luminance and edge contrast of an object are essential features for object
identification. However, cortical processing of surface luminance remains unclear. In this …

Spatial integration of visual information is an important function in the brain. However, neural
computation for spatial integration in the visual cortex remains unclear. In this study, we …

Surround suppression was initially identified as a phenomenon at the neural level in which
stimuli outside the neuron's receptive field alone cannot activate responses but can …

The neocortex comprises six cortical layers that play a crucial role in information processing;
however, it remains unclear whether laminar processing is consistent across all regions …
