Spatially selective firing of place cells, grid cells, boundary vector/border cells and head
direction cells constitutes the basic building blocks of a canonical spatial navigation system …

Spatial cognition is crucial for animal survival and reflects higher-order cognitive processes
achieved through the coordination of neurons, local networks, and the brain's overall …

Conscious perception of limb movements depends on proprioceptive neural responses in
the somatosensory cortex. In contrast to tactile sensations, proprioceptive cortical coding is …

Sucrose's sweet intensity is one attribute contributing to the overconsumption of high-energy
palatable foods. However, it is not known how sucrose intensity is encoded and used to …

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is a key brain structure for higher cognitive functions
such as decision-making and goal-directed behavior, many of which require awareness of …

Background Behavior consists of the interaction between an organism and its environment,
and is controlled by the brain. Brain activity varies at sub-second time scales, but behavioral …

Objective. Micro-electrocorticographic (μECoG) arrays are able to record neural activities
from the cortical surface, without the need to penetrate the brain parenchyma. Owing in part …

A radically new cosmological view from a groundbreaking neuroscientist placing the human
brain at the center of humanity's universe Renowned neuroscientist Miguel Nicolelis …

Hippocampal CA1 neurons respond to sensory stimuli during enforced immobility,
movement, and their transitions in a new conveyor belt task. Head-fixed mice were exposed …

Several brain regions in the frontal, occipital and medial temporal lobes are known to
contribute to spatial information processing. In contrast, the oscillatory patterns contributing …
