    Spatially targeted inhibitory rhythms differentially affect neuronal integration

    Drew B Headley, Benjamin Latimer ... Satish S Nair
    Beta and gamma inhibitory rhythms are preferentially tuned to govern synaptic integration in layer 5 pyramidal neurons by differentially modulating responses to inputs targeting distal dendritic and perisomatic compartments.

    Readout and delayed transmission of initial afferent V1 activity in decisions about stimulus contrast

    Kieran S Mohr, Simon P Kelly
    Evidence is provided suggesting that aggregate neural activity at an early stage of visual processing (V1) can directly contribute to perceptual decisions in humans.
