Over the past decade, renewed interest in the auditory system has resulted in a surge of
anatomical and physiological research in the primate auditory cortex and its targets …

We review the use of neural field models for modelling the brain at the large scales
necessary for interpreting EEG, fMRI, MEG and optical imaging data. Albeit a framework that …

As a person learns a new skill, distinct synapses, brain regions, and circuits are engaged
and change over time. In this paper, we develop methods to examine patterns of correlated …

We investigate how synchrony can be generated or induced in networks of electrically
coupled integrate-and-fire neurons subject to noisy and heterogeneous inputs. Using …

Large scale studies of spiking neural networks are a key part of modern approaches to
understanding the dynamics of biological neural tissue. One approach in computational …

Humans adeptly use visual motion to recognize socially relevant facial information. The
macaque provides a model visual system for studying neural coding of expression …

Slow oscillations are an emergent activity of the cerebral cortex network consisting of
alternating periods of activity (Up states) and silence (Down states). Up states are periods of …

The cortical network recurrent circuitry generates spontaneous activity organized into Up
(active) and Down (quiescent) states during slow-wave sleep or anesthesia. These different …

Key points We confirm that GABAB receptors (GABAB‐Rs) are involved in the termination of
Up‐states; their blockade consistently elongates Up‐states. GABAB‐Rs also modulate …

Binding of features and information which are processed at different cortical areas is
generally supposed to be achieved by synchrony despite the non-negligible delays between …
