Abstract: Developmental milestones are behavioral and physical skills which are considered as markers of neurodevelopment. In rodents, sensory input from whiskers plays a crucial role in development of brain functions. Development of whisker system in rats… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Age‐related hearing loss is one of the most prevalent health conditions among the elderly. Hearing loss may lead to social isolation, depression, and cognitive decline in older adults. The mechanistic basis for the association… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract. Twenty years ago, the seminal work of Grinvald et al. revolutionized the view cast on spontaneous cortical activity by showing how, instead of being a mere measure of noise, it profoundly impacts cortical responses… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00529.2021
Abstract: Perceptual learning is commonly assumed to enhance perception through continuous attended sensory input. However, learning is generalizable to performance in untrained stimuli and tasks. Although previous studies have observed a possible generalization effect across tasks… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005926
Abstract: During active behaviours like running, swimming, whisking or sniffing, motor actions shape sensory input and sensory percepts guide future motor commands. Ongoing cycles of sensory and motor processing constitute a closed-loop feedback system which is… read more here.
