The study of the cortical control of movement experienced a conceptual shift over recent
decades, as the basic currency of understanding shifted from single-neuron tuning towards …

Simultaneous recordings from hundreds or thousands of neurons are becoming routine
because of innovations in instrumentation, molecular tools, and data processing software …

The neural population spiking activity recorded by intracortical brain-computer interfaces
(iBCIs) contain rich structure. Current models of such spiking activity are largely prepared for …

One of the central goals of neuroscience is to gain a mechanistic understanding of how the
dynamics of neural circuits give rise to their observed function. A popular approach towards …

The relation between neural activity and behaviorally relevant variables is at the heart of
neuroscience research. When strong, this relation is termed a neural representation. There …

The ability to optogenetically perturb neural circuits opens an unprecedented window into
mechanisms governing circuit function. We analyzed and theoretically modeled neuronal …

Background Neuroprostheses are used to electrically stimulate the brain, modulate neural
activity and restore sensory and motor function following injury or disease, such as …

Neural development must construct neural circuits that can perform the computations
necessary for survival. However, many theoretical models of development do not explicitly …
