Oscillatory patterns of activity in various frequency ranges are ubiquitously expressed in cortical circuits. While recent studies in humans emphasized rhythmic modulations of neuronal oscillations ("second-order" rhythms), their potential involvement in i ...
Neuroimaging studies typically compare experimental conditions using average brain responses, thereby overlooking the stimulus-related information conveyed by distributed spatio-temporal patterns of single-trial responses. Here, we take advantage of this r ...
Neurons in the brain form highly complex networks through synaptic connections. Traditionally, functional connectivity between neurons has been explored using methods such as correlations, which do not contain any notion of directionality. Recently, an inf ...
Redundant encoding of information facilitates reliable distributed information processing. To explore this hypothesis in the motor system, we applied concepts from information theory to quantify the redundancy of movement-related information encoded in the ...
Future emerging technologies in upper limb neuroprosthetic devices will require decoding and executing the user's intended movement. Previous studies, using invasive and non-invasive brain signals, have shown promising results in decoding movement directio ...
Miguel Nicolelis, un scientifique de renommée mondiale dans le domaine des neurosciences, voit dans la science et la recherche un moteur de progrès économique et social. Il souhaite ainsi créer un réseau de cités scientifiques novateur à travers les région ...
The present invention relates to methods and neuronal cellular preparations allowing monitoring intracellular and transcellular molecular events on both short and long timescales in an ex vivo neuronal network of intact post-mitotic neurons. In particular, ...
Interfacing organic electronics and biology offers new possibilities in biotechnology, due to the unique properties exhibited by organic conducting polymers (e.g. biological affinity, mechanical flexibility, ease of functionalization and cost effectiveness ...
In crowding, flankers impair target perception. For example, Vernier offset discrimination deteriorates when the Vernier is flanked by parallel lines. Pooling models explain crowding by averaging neural activity over both Vernier and flankers. Recently, ho ...
A key issue toward the realization of retinal prosthetic devices is a reliable transduction of the information carried by light into specific patterns of electrical activity at the level of the networks involved in visual information processing. In this pe ...
