Theta and gamma frequency oscillations occur in the same brain regions and interact with
each other, a process called cross-frequency coupling. Here, we review evidence for the …

The two basic processes underlying perceptual decisions—how neural responses encode
stimuli, and how they inform behavioral choices—have mainly been studied separately …

The cortex represents information across widely varying timescales,,,,. For instance, sensory
cortex encodes stimuli that fluctuate over few tens of milliseconds,, whereas in association …

Determining how neuronal activity represents sensory information is central for
understanding perception. Recent work shows that neural responses at different timescales …

The brain is a highly modular structure. To exploit modularity, it is necessary that spiking
activity can propagate from one module to another while preserving the information it …

The mouse is becoming a key species for research on the neural circuits of the early visual
system. To relate such circuits to perception, one must measure visually guided behavior …

Neural activity and behavior in laboratory experiments are surprisingly variable across trials.
This variability and its potential causes have been the focus of a spirited debate. Here we …

It is often suggested that decisions are made when accumulated sensory information
reaches a fixed accuracy criterion. This is supported by many studies showing a gradual …

Neuronal responses during behavior are diverse, ranging from highly reliable
'classical'responses to irregular 'non-classically responsive'firing. While a continuum of …

INTRODUCTION Advances in monitoring brain activity at large and fine scales have
revealed tremendous complexity in how the brain responds to, and represents, the external …
