Learning alters theta-nested gamma oscillations in inferotemporal cortex
How coupled brain rhythms influence cortical information processing to support learning is unresolved. Local field potential and neuronal activity recordings from 64- electrode arrays in sheep infe…

Memristive model of amoeba’s learning
Recently, behavioural intelligence of the plasmodia of the true slime mold has been demonstrated. It was shown that a large amoeba-like cell Physarum polycephalum subject to a pattern of periodic e…

Working memory: Is it the new IQ?
Working memory, our ability to process and remember information, is linked to a range of cognitive activities from reasoning tasks to verbal comprehension. There is also extensive evidence of the r…

Mushroom-bodies regulate habit formation in Drosophila
Our past experience is one of the primary sources of information when faced with a choice. We ask ourselves: “what will happen if I do this?” Accurately predicting the consequences of our actions …

Reduced contribution of the ipsilateral primary motor cortex to force modulation with short-term motor learning in humans: An NIRS study
How is muscle force modulated during hand exercise? Oxygenation in the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1) has been observed to vary considerably across trials of repetitive handgrip exercise. ...

Reading the Neural Code: What do Spikes Mean for Behavior?
The present study reveals the existence of an intrinsic spatial code within neuronal spikes that predicts behavior. As rats learnt a T-maze procedural task, simultaneous changes in temporal occurre…
