Common Neocortical and Hippocampal Correlates of Performance Errors in a Timing Task
We aimed to identify the neuronal correlates of performance errors in a difficult timing task. Male rats were trained to seek rewards and avoid shocks depending on the position of photic conditioned stimuli (CS-R and CS-S, respectively). Then, the...

Adolescent Cerebellar Nuclei Manipulation Alters Reversal Learning and Perineuronal Net Intensity Independently in Male and Female Mice
The cerebellum, identified to be active during cognitive and social behavior, has multisynaptic connections through the cerebellar nuclei (CN) and thalamus to cortical regions, yet formation and modulation of these pathways are not fully understoo...

Attention Rhythmically Shapes Sensory Tuning
Attention is key to perception and human behavior, and evidence shows that it periodically samples sensory information (<20 Hz). However, this view has been recently challenged due to methodological concerns and gaps in our understanding of the fu...

Time Course of Orientation Ensemble Representation in the Human Brain
Natural scenes are filled with groups of similar items. Humans employ ensemble coding to extract the summary statistical information of the environment, thereby enhancing the efficiency of information processing, something particularly useful when...

Motor Functional Hierarchical Organization of Cerebrum and Its Underlying Genetic Architecture in Parkinsons Disease
Hierarchy has been identified as a principle underlying the organization of human brain networks. However, it remains unclear how the network hierarchy is disrupted in Parkinson's disease (PD) motor symptoms and how it is modulated by the underlyi...

Topographic Axes of Wiring Space Converge to Genetic Topography in Shaping the Human Cortical Layout
Genetic information is involved in the gradual emergence of cortical areas since the neural tube begins to form, shaping the heterogeneous functions of neural circuits in the human brain. Informed by invasive tract-tracing measurements, the cortex...

A Complex Acoustical Environment During Development Enhances Auditory Perception and Coding Efficiency in the Zebra Finch
Sensory experience during development has lasting effects on perception and neural processing. Exposing juvenile animals to artificial stimuli influences the tuning and functional organization of the auditory cortex, but less is known about how th...

Large Donor CRISPR for Whole-Coding Sequence Replacement of Cell Adhesion Molecule LRRTM2
The cell adhesion molecule leucine-rich repeat transmembrane neuronal protein 2 (LRRTM2) is crucial for synapse development and function. However, our understanding of its endogenous trafficking has been limited due to difficulties in manipulating...
