Abstract Systems neuroscience seeks explanations for how the brain implements a wide
variety of perceptual, cognitive and motor tasks. Conversely, artificial intelligence attempts to …

Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques are used in experimental and clinical fields for
their potential effects on brain network dynamics and behavior. Transcranial electrical …

A critical step in the interpretation of the visual world is the integration of the various local
motion signals generated by moving objects. This process is complicated by the fact that local …

Cortical visual prostheses are intended to restore vision by targeted electrical stimulation of
the visual cortex. The perception of spots of light, called phosphenes, resulting from …

Spike timing is thought to play a critical role in neural computation and communication.
Methods for adjusting spike timing are therefore of great interest to researchers and clinicians …

Visual neurons are often characterized in terms of their tuning for various stimulus properties,
such as shape, color, and velocity. Generally, these tuning curves are further modulated by …

Single neurons carry out important sensory and motor functions related to the larger
networks in which they are embedded. Understanding the relationships between single-neuron …

Our perception of fine visual detail relies on small receptive fields at early stages of visual
processing. However, small receptive fields tend to confound the orientation and velocity of …

There has been growing interest in transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive
technique purported to modulate neural activity via weak, externally applied electric …

Traveling waves of neural activity are frequently observed to occur in concert with the
presentation of a sensory stimulus or the execution of a movement. Although such waves have …
