In this review, we examine computational models that explore the role of neural oscillations in speech perception, spanning from early auditory proces…

Until recently, it has been possible to examine activity in the brain globally through regional averaging or locally at cellular resolution. These studies characterized regions as functionally homogen...

Progesterone is a sex hormone with broad effects beyond the reproductive system, in particular in the brain.

Changes in the activity profile of cortical neurons are due to effects at the scale of local and long-range networks. Accordingly, abrupt transitions in the state of cortical neurons—a phenomenon know...

Let’s talk epistemology. Actually, let’s have magenta and cyan bid farewell to epistemology altogether

How does climate change impact the brain? Spoiler alert: it’s not good

Dopaminergic action prediction error signals are used by mice as a value-free teaching signal to reinforce stable sound–action associations in the tail of the striatum.

Hemispheric specialization is a fundamental characteristic of human brain organization, where most individuals exhibit left-hemisphere dominance for language and right-hemisphere dominance for visuosp...

The White House appears hell-bent on destroying not just economic and political paradigms, but a higher education system that really did make America great.

Complex neural circuits likely arose independently in birds and mammals, suggesting that vertebrates evolved intelligence multiple times.

Using advanced brain-recording techniques, parrots were found to have a brain organization for vocal control similar to humans, making them an important model for studying speech and for developing potential treatments for communication disorders.

Studies in zebra finches show that dopamine has a key role as a reinforcement signal in the trial-and-error process of learning that underlies complex natural behaviours.

Humans spend excessive brain energy on the slow-acting neuromodulation of signaling pathways, yielding cognitive functions.

This effect even occurs with virtual nature – such as nature videos

In New York and other cities where congestion pricing policies, bike infrastructure projects, and car bans have been put in place, cyclists are finding the streets more welcoming.

The role of lateral inhibition for perception and neural computation remains unsolved. Del Rosario et al. show that distinct types of cortical interneurons in V1 drive lateral inhibition that causes s...
