Transcriptomic cell type structures in vivo neuronal activity across multiple timescales

A Schneider, M Azabou, L McDougall-Vigier, DF Parks… - Cell reports, 2023 - cell.com
Cell type is hypothesized to be a key determinant of a neuron's role within a circuit. Here, we
examine whether a neuron's transcriptomic type influences the timing of its activity. We …

Compatibility evaluation of clustering algorithms for contemporary extracellular neural spike sorting

R Veerabhadrappa, M Ul Hassan, J Zhang… - Frontiers in systems …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Deciphering useful information from electrophysiological data recorded from the brain, in-
vivo or in-vitro, is dependent on the capability to analyse spike patterns efficiently and …

Stimulus presentation can enhance spiking irregularity across subcortical and cortical regions

S Fayaz, MA Fakharian… - PLoS Computational …, 2022 - journals.plos.org
Stimulus presentation is believed to quench neural response variability as measured by
fano-factor (FF). However, the relative contributions of within-trial spike irregularity and trial …

A causal role of area hMST for self-motion perception in humans

C Schmitt, BR Baltaretu, JD Crawford… - Cerebral Cortex …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Previous studies in the macaque monkey have provided clear causal evidence for an
involvement of the medial-superior-temporal area (MST) in the perception of self-motion …

Neural coding of cell assemblies via spike-timing self-information

M Li, K Xie, H Kuang, J Liu, D Wang, GE Fox… - Cerebral …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Cracking brain's neural code is of general interest. In contrast to the traditional view that
enormous spike variability in resting states and stimulus-triggered responses reflects noise …

Multicoding in neural information transfer suggested by mathematical analysis of the frequency-dependent synaptic plasticity in vivo

K Hata, O Araki, O Yokoi, T Kusakabe, Y Yamamoto… - Scientific reports, 2020 - nature.com
Two elements of neural information processing have primarily been proposed: firing rate
and spike timing of neurons. In the case of synaptic plasticity, although spike-timing …
