Understanding how the brain encodes behavior is essential to tackling neurodegenerative disorders, physical disabilities, and other life-altering conditions. But that’s hardly an easy task. Mapping ...

A critical function performed by visual systems is the fast and reliable detection of features within the environment, such as moving objects or approaching threats. Neurons predicted to encode these ...

The ability to detect imminent threats and execute behaviors aimed at protecting oneself, such as hiding, running away or defending oneself, is central to the survival of most animal species. A region ...

Recently, a research team reported a competition-integration mechanism of space-time encoding in individual hippocampal neurons. This discovery provides an essential neural basis for understanding ...
