Translating neurophysiological findings requires understanding the relationship between common measures of brain activity in animals (spiking activity) and humans (local field potentials, LFP). Prior ...

Animals fluctuate between high and low performance states during decision-making. Bandi et al. demonstrate that parietal cortex is causally required for maintaining high-performance states during auditory localization. Parietal cortex population activity distinguishes performance states and exhibits enhanced correlational structure only during the high-performance state, unlike primary auditory cortex.

Reduced rank regression (RRR) is a statistical method for finding a low-dimensional linear mapping between a set of high-dimensional inputs and outputs. In recent years, RRR has found numerous applica...
