Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology represents a burgeoning interdisciplinary domain
that facilitates direct communication between individuals and external devices. The efficacy …

Cognitive functions are mediated through coordinated and dynamic neuronal responses that
involve many different areas across the brain. Therefore, it is of high interest to …

Due to the size and opacity of vertebrate brains, it has until now been impossible to
simultaneously record neuronal activity at cellular resolution across the entire adult brain. As …

Conscious perception is greatly diminished during sleep, but the underlying circuit
mechanism is poorly understood. We show that cortical ignition—a brain process shown to …

Intra-vital visualization of deep cerebrovascular structures and blood flow in the aging brain
has been a difficult challenge in the field of neurovascular research, especially when …

Focused ultrasound (FUS) is an emerging noinvasive technique for neuromodulation in the
central nervous system (CNS). To evaluate the effects of FUS-induced neuromodulation …

Anesthesia is a major confounding factor in preclinical stroke research as stroke rarely
occurs in sedated patients. Moreover, anesthesia affects both brain functions and the stroke …

Positioning and navigation are essential components of neuroimaging as they improve the
quality and reliability of data acquisition, leading to advances in diagnosis, treatment …

Ischemic stroke occurs abruptly causing sudden neurologic deficits, and therefore, very little
is known about hemodynamic perturbations in the brain immediately after stroke onset …

Background and purpose The sensory cortex is organized into “maps” that represent
sensory space across cortical space. In primary visual cortex (V1) of highly visual mammals …
