Cortical gain regulation allows neurons to respond adaptively to changing inputs. Neural
gain is modulated by internal and external influences, including attentional and arousal …

Neural activity and behavior are both notoriously variable, with responses differing widely
between repeated presentation of identical stimuli or trials. Recent results in humans and …

Recent studies have demonstrated prominent and widespread movement-related signals in
the brain of head-fixed mice, even in primary sensory areas. However, it is still unknown …

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 …

Cognitive processes are almost exclusively investigated under highly controlled settings
during which voluntary body movements are suppressed. However, recent animal work …

Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate whether short‐term inverse occlusion,
combined with moderate physical exercise, could promote the recovery of visual acuity and …

Walking influences visual processing but the underlying mechanism remains poorly
understood. In this study, we investigated the influence of walking on pre-stimulus and …

Mobile EEG allows the investigation of brain activity in increasingly complex environments.
In this study, EEG equipment was adapted for use and transportation in a backpack while …

Walking is among our most frequent and natural of voluntary behaviours, yet the
consequences of locomotion upon perceptual and cognitive function remain largely …

Humans show remarkable habituation to aversive events as reflected by changes of both
subjective report and objective measures of stress. Although much experimental human …
