TL;DR
A protocol for analyzing ongoing neuronal network activity using binwise decoding, trial-to-trial variability analysis, and estimation of network-intrinsic timescales (INTs) to identify slow dynamics that encode the memory of recent stimuli in neuronal populations in mouse auditory cortex and in artificial neural networks trained on a novelty-detection task.
Abstract
Summary Temporal information processing is critical for brain function, supporting neural computations such as novelty detection, adaptation, and temporal normalization. Its disruption is implicated in schizophrenia. We present a protocol for analyzing ongoing neuronal network activity using binwise decoding, trial-to-trial variability analysis, and estimation of network-intrinsic timescales (INTs). We apply these techniques to identify slow dynamics that encode the memory of recent stimuli in neuronal populations in the mouse auditory cortex and in artificial neural networks trained on a novelty-detection task. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Shymkiv et al.1
Despite enabling nearly all cerebellar-cortical communication, how the thalamus processes and interacts with cerebellar activity remains unclear. We found a pronounced 1-5 Hz (delta) rhythm in the thalamic membrane potential and cerebellothalamocortical local field potentials during nonmoving periods in behaving mice....
A central challenge in neuroscience research is to elucidate how distinct neuronal types coordinate to produce complex behaviors, which requires linking the molecular identity of neuronal types with their connectivity and activity in behaving animals. Here, we present a protocol for integrating spatial gene-expression...

Strong accelerating flows, followed rapidly by decelerating flows, predicted stimulation-induced symptoms and faster behavioral responses, indicating that information transfer through white matter supports sequential transitions from perception to lexical retrieval and articulation.

Theta oscillations are pivotal for attention and memory, with developmental shifts in theta activity and connectivity tracking memory ability across the lifespan. Building on initial evidence that the theta band separates into slow and fast sub-bands across development within the medial temporal lobe (MTL) and the pref...

It is suggested that combination of a variety of coding mechanisms in the human HPC neuronal population supports execution of WM and opens a window to explore the functional dissociations along the primate HPC antero-posterior axis.

This approach establishes a blueprint for non-invasively mapping cortico-cerebellar network dynamics, providing a framework to study circuit-level dysfunctions in disorders affecting the cerebellum and show that cortico-cerebellar coupling functions as a gating mechanism and suggest that cerebellar circuits modulate co...
