The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) has garnered interest recently as a powerful
model for the future of neuroscience research. Much of this excitement has centered on the …

The advent of unbiased recording and imaging techniques to evaluate firing activity across
neocortical neurons has revealed substantial heterogeneity in response properties in vivo …

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

Traditionally, different classes of cutaneous mechanoreceptive afferents are ascribed
different and largely non-overlapping functional roles (for example texture or motion) …

Animals require the ability to ignore sensory stimuli that have no consequence yet respond
to the same stimuli when they become useful. However, the brain circuits that govern this …

Decisions based on the timing of sensory events are fundamental to sensory processing.
However, the mechanisms by which the brain measures time over ranges of milliseconds to …

How do neuronal populations in the auditory cortex represent acoustic stimuli? Although
sound-evoked neural responses in the anesthetized auditory cortex are mainly transient …

Can we decipher speech content (“what” is being said) and speaker identity (“who” is saying
it) from observations of brain activity of a listener? Here, we combine functional magnetic …

Cortical circuits work through the generation of coordinated, large-scale activity patterns. In
sensory systems, the onset of a discrete stimulus usually evokes a temporally organized …

Projection neurons (PNs) in the locust antennal lobe exhibit odor-specific dynamic
responses. We studied a PN population, stimulated with five odorants and pulse durations …
