Sharp wave ripples (SPW‐Rs) represent the most synchronous population pattern in the
mammalian brain. Their excitatory output affects a wide area of the cortex and several …

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

Persistent neuronal spiking has long been considered the mechanism underlying working
memory, but recent proposals argue for alternative 'activity-silent'substrates. Using monkey …

The close replication of synaptic functions is an important objective for achieving a highly
realistic memristor-based cognitive computation. The emulation of neurobiological learning …

A large population of neurons can, in principle, produce an astronomical number of distinct
firing patterns. In cortex, however, these patterns lie in a space of lower dimension,,,, as if …

Responses of sensory neurons differ across repeated measurements. This variability is
usually treated as stochasticity arising within neurons or neural circuits. However, some …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

Hyper-reactivity to sensory input is a common and debilitating symptom in individuals with
autism spectrum disorders (ASD), but the neural basis underlying sensory abnormality is not …

Mounting evidence suggests that understanding how the brain encodes information and
performs computations will require studying the correlations between neurons. The recent …

When animals interact with complex environments, their neural circuits must separate
overlapping patterns of activity that represent sensory and motor information. Pattern …
