The ascending arousal system shapes neural dynamics to mediate awareness of cognitive states
Abstract Models of cognitive function typically focus on the cerebral cortex and hence
overlook functional links to subcortical structures. This view does not consider the role of the …

A disinhibitory circuit mechanism explains a general principle of peak performance during mid-level arousal
Perceptual decision-making is highly dependent on the momentary arousal state of the
brain, which fluctuates over time on a scale of hours, minutes, and even seconds. The …

Sensory processing in humans and mice fluctuates between external and internal modes
Perception is known to cycle through periods of enhanced and reduced sensitivity to
external information. Here, we asked whether such slow fluctuations arise as a noise-related …

Pupil diameter is not an accurate real-time readout of locus coeruleus activity
M Megemont, J McBurney-Lin, H Yang - Elife, 2022 - elifesciences.org
Pupil diameter is often treated as a noninvasive readout of activity in the locus coeruleus
(LC). However, how accurately it can be used to index LC activity is not known. To address …

Rapid fluctuations in functional connectivity of cortical networks encode spontaneous behavior
Experimental work across species has demonstrated that spontaneously generated
behaviors are robustly coupled to variations in neural activity within the cerebral cortex …
