From visual perception to language, sensory stimuli change their meaning depending on previous experience. Recurrent neural dynamics can interpret stimuli based on externally cued context, but it is unknown whether they can compute and employ interna...

Animals continuously combine information across sensory modalities and time, and use these combined signals to guide their behaviour. Picture a predator watching their prey sprint and screech through a field. To date, a range of multisensory algorith...

During walking and running, animals display rich and coordinated motor patterns that are generated and controlled within the central nervous system. Previous computational and experimental results suggest that the balance between excitation and inhib...

Body-part-centered response fields are pervasive in single neurons, functional magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography and behavior, but there is no unifying formal explanation of their origins and role. In the present study, we used reinf...

Astrocytes, the most abundant type of glial cell, play a fundamental role in memory. Despite most hippocampal synapses being contacted by an astrocyte, there are no current theories that explain how neurons, synapses, and astrocytes might collectivel...

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)-derived neuronal networks on multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) are a powerful tool for studying neurological disorders. The electric activity patterns of these networks differ between healthy and patient-deri...

Cortical circuits feature both excitatory and inhibitory cells that underlie the encoding of dynamic sensory stimuli, e.g., speech, music, odors, and natural scenes. Although previous studies have shown that inhibition plays an important role in shap...
