Imaging awake animals is quickly gaining traction in neuroscience as it offers a means to
eliminate the confounding effects of anesthesia, difficulties of inter-species translation (when …

Fiber photometry is an emerging technique for recording fluorescent sensor activity in the
brain. However, significant hemoglobin absorption artifacts in fiber photometry data may be …

Arousal state affects neural activity and vascular dynamics in the cortex, with sleep
associated with large changes in the local field potential and increases in cortical blood flow …

Visual stimulation-evoked blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) responses can exhibit
more complex temporal dynamics than a simple monophasic response. For instance, BOLD …

In the adult sensory cortex, increases in neural activity elicited by sensory stimulation usually
drive vasodilation mediated by neurovascular coupling. However, whether neurovascular …

Objective. The brain network has been extensively studied as a collection of brain regions
that are functionally inter-connected. However, the study of the causal relationship in brain …

Simultaneously manipulating and monitoring both microscopic and macroscopic brain
activity in vivo and identifying the linkage to behavior are powerful tools in neuroscience …

The visual continuity illusion involves a shift in visual perception from static to dynamic vision
modes when the stimuli arrive at high temporal frequency, and is critical for recognizing …

Hierarchical structures constitute a wide array of brain areas, including the visual system.
One of the important questions regarding visual hierarchical structures is to identify …

Significance: Due to the vascular origin of the fMRI signal, the spatiotemporally precise
interpretation of the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) response as brain-wide correlate …
