Memories are not written in stone: Re-writing fear memories by means of non-invasive brain stimulation and optogenetic manipulations
The acquisition of fear associative memory requires brain processes of coordinated neural
activity within the amygdala, prefrontal cortex (PFC), hippocampus, thalamus and brainstem …

Multisensory decisions from self to world
Classic Bayesian models of perceptual inference describe how an ideal observer would
integrate 'unisensory'measurements (multisensory integration) and attribute sensory signals …

Pupil-linked phasic arousal predicts a reduction of choice bias across species and decision domains
Decisions are often made by accumulating ambiguous evidence over time. The brain's
arousal systems are activated during such decisions. In previous work in humans, we found …

Neural correlates of optimal multisensory decision making under time-varying reliabilities with an invariant linear probabilistic population code
Perceptual decisions are often based on multiple sensory inputs whose reliabilities rapidly
vary over time, yet little is known about how the brain integrates these inputs to optimize …

Urgent decision making: resolving visuomotor interactions at high temporal resolution
Measuring when exactly perceptual decisions are made is crucial for defining how the
activation of specific neurons contributes to behavior. However, in traditional, nonurgent …

Designing and interpreting psychophysical investigations of cognition
Scientific experimentation depends on the artificial control of natural phenomena. The
inaccessibility of cognitive processes to direct manipulation can make such control difficult to …

Neural encoding of active multi-sensing enhances perceptual decision-making via a synergistic cross-modal interaction
Most perceptual decisions rely on the active acquisition of evidence from the environment
involving stimulation from multiple senses. However, our understanding of the neural …

A neural basis for categorizing sensory stimuli to enhance decision accuracy
Sensory stimuli with graded intensities often lead to yes-or-no decisions on whether to
respond to the stimuli. How this graded-to-binary conversion is implemented in the central …
