Spatial orientation and navigation rely on the acquisition of several types of sensory
information. This information is then transformed into a neural code for space in the …

In the visual system of primates, different neuronal pathways are specialized for processing
information about the spatial coordinates of objects and their identity—that …

In the rodent vibrissal system, active sensation and sensorimotor integration are mediated in
part by connections between barrel cortex and vibrissal motor cortex. Little is known about …

Classical studies have related the spiking of selected neocortical neurons to behavior, but
little is known about activity sampled from the entire neural population. We recorded from …

Sensory substitution devices (SSDs) have come a long way since first developed for visual
rehabilitation. They have produced exciting experimental results, and have furthered our …

Linking activity in specific cell types with perception, cognition, and action, requires
quantitative behavioral experiments in genetic model systems such as the mouse. In head …

Although all minimally invasive procedures involve navigating from a small incision in the
skin to the site of the intervention, it has not been previously demonstrated how this can be …

The rodent whisker system is widely used as a model system for investigating sensorimotor
integration, neural mechanisms of complex cognitive tasks, neural development, and …

Metacommunity theory provides an understanding of how spatial processes determine the
structure and function of communities at local and regional scales. Although metacommunity …

Active sensing systems are purposive and information-seeking sensory systems. Active
sensing usually entails sensor movement, but more fundamentally, it involves control of the …
