The collective activity of a population of neurons, beyond the properties of individual cells, is
crucial for many brain functions. A fundamental question is how activity correlations between …

The streams of sounds we typically attend to abound in acoustic regularities. Neural
entrainment is seen as an important mechanism that the listening brain exploits to attune to …

Human visual neurons rely on event-driven, energy-efficient spikes for communication, while
silicon image sensors do not. The energy-budget mismatch between biological systems and …

How does education affect cortical organization? All literate adults possess a region
specialized for letter strings, the visual word form area (VWFA), within the mosaic of ventral …

Neural oscillations subserve a broad range of functions in speech processing and language
comprehension. On the one hand, speech contains—somewhat—repetitive trains of air …

Cortical oscillations are likely candidates for segmentation and coding of continuous
speech. Here, we monitored continuous speech processing with magnetoencephalography …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

Restoration of touch after hand amputation is a desirable feature of ideal prostheses. Here,
we show that texture discrimination can be artificially provided in human subjects by …

Carrying out any everyday task, be it driving in traffic, conversing with friends or playing
basketball, requires rapid selection, integration and segregation of stimuli from different …

Does the brain track how fast our blood glucose is changing? Knowing such a rate of
change would enable the prediction of an upcoming state and a timelier response to this …
