A cerebro-cerebellar network for learning visuomotor associations

N Sendhilnathan, AC Bostan, PL Strick… - Nature …, 2024 - nature.com
Consensus is rapidly building to support a role for the cerebellum beyond motor function, but
its contributions to non-motor learning remain poorly understood. Here, we provide …

Characterization of the neuroinflammatory response to thiol-ene shape memory polymer coated intracortical microelectrodes

AJ Shoffstall, M Ecker, V Danda, A Joshi-Imre, A Stiller… - Micromachines, 2018 - mdpi.com

Different research methods such as non-invasive imaging methods and intracranial …

Rapid input-output transformation between local field potential and spiking activity during sensation but not action in the superior colliculus

C Bourrelly, C Massot, NJ Gandhi - Journal of Neuroscience, 2023 - Soc Neuroscience
Sensorimotor transformation is the sequential process of registering a sensory signal in the
environment and then responding with the relevant movement at an appropriate time. For …

Neural mechanisms underlying the temporal control of sequential saccade planning in the frontal eye field

D Basu, N Sendhilnathan… - Proceedings of the …, 2021 - National Acad Sciences
Sequences of saccadic eye movements are instrumental in navigating our visual
environment. While neural activity has been shown to ramp up to a threshold before single …

Frontal eye field neurons selectively signal the reward value of prior actions

X Chen, M Zirnsak, GM Vega, T Moore - Progress in neurobiology, 2020 - Elsevier
The consequences of individual actions are typically unknown until well after they are
executed. This fact necessitates a mechanism that bridges delays between specific actions …

How do we choose a particular action among equally valid alternatives? Nonhuman primate
findings have shown that decision-making implicates modulations in unit firing rates and …

Parallel programming of saccades in the macaque frontal eye field: are sequential motor plans coactivated?

D Basu, A Murthy - Journal of neurophysiology, 2020 - journals.physiology.org
We use sequences of saccadic eye movements to continually explore our visual
environments. Previous behavioral studies have established that saccades in a sequence …
