The ongoing exponential rise in recording capacity calls for new approaches for analysing
and interpreting neural data. Effective dimensionality has emerged as an important property …

One major challenge of neuroscience is identifying structure in seemingly disorganized
neural activity. Different types of structure have different computational implications that can …

Nearly all brain functions involve routing neural activity among a distributed network of
areas. Understanding this routing requires more than a description of interareal anatomical …

Brains can gracefully weed out irrelevant stimuli to guide behavior. This feat is believed to
rely on a progressive selection of task-relevant stimuli across the cortical hierarchy, but the …

While neural plasticity has long been studied as the basis of learning, the growth of large-
scale neural recording techniques provides a unique opportunity to study how learning …

The strategies found by animals facing a new task are determined both by individual
experience and by structural priors evolved to leverage the statistics of natural …

In higher sensory cortices, there is a gradual transformation from sensation to perception
and action. In the auditory system, this transformation is revealed by responses in the rostral …

Cortical processing of task-relevant information enables recognition of behaviorally
meaningful sensory events. It is unclear how task-related information is represented within …

There is a lack of consensus on anatomical nomenclature, standards of documentation, and
functional equivalence of the frontal cortex between species. There remains a major gap …

Neuroprosthetics and neuromodulation represent a promising field for several related
applications in the central and peripheral nervous system, such as the treatment of …
