Emotions are an important part of human intelligence. Identifying specific emotional categories from complex neural patterns, i.e., the neural decoding of emotional information, is a key issue in ...

The cerebellum is a region of the brain that helps us refine our movements and learn new motor skills. Patients and mouse models experience many kinds of abnormal movements when their cerebellum is ...

Scientists have revealed how taste is encoded in patterns of neural activity in the human brain. A team of researchers from the German Institute of Human Nutrition in Potsdam and the Charité ...

Models of predictive coding frame perception as a generative process in which expectations constrain sensory representations. These models account for expectations about how a stimulus will move or ...

Highly localized neuronal spikes in primate temporal cortex can encode associative memory; however, whether memory formation involves area-wide reorganization of ensemble activity, which often ...
