Neurons are generally considered to communicate information by increasing or decreasing
their firing rate. However, in principle, they could in addition convey messages by using …

The cerebellum is best known for its role in controlling motor behaviors. However, recent
work supports the view that it also influences non-motor behaviors. The contribution of the …

The cerebellum is thought to help detect and correct errors between intended and executed
commands, and is critical for social behaviours, cognition and emotion,,–. Computations for …

An unusual feature of the cerebellar cortex is that its output neurons, Purkinje cells, release
GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid). Their high intrinsic firing rates (50 Hz) and extensive …

The ability of the brain to accurately control a movement depends on the cerebellum. Yet,
how the cerebellar neurons encode information relevant for this control remains poorly …

Cognitive processes involve precisely coordinated neuronal communications between
multiple cerebral cortical structures in a task specific manner. Rich new evidence now …

Correlated neuronal activity at various timescales plays an important role in information
transfer and processing. We find that in awake-behaving mice, an unexpectedly large …

Information transmission between neural populations could occur through either
coordinated changes in firing rates or the precise transmission of spike timing. We …

Tinnitus, the perception of phantom sounds, is thought to arise from increased neural
synchrony, which facilitates perceptual binding and creates salient sensory features in the …

Engineering human tissue with diverse cell types and architectures remains challenging.
The cerebral cortex, which has a layered cellular architecture composed of layer-specific …
