Journal ArticleDOI
Brain rhythms and neural syntax: implications for efficient coding of cognitive content and neuropsychiatric disease.
György Buzsáki,Brendon O. Watson +1 more
TL;DR: Findings from animal studies showing that most forms of brain rhythms are inhibition-based are reviewed, producing rhythmic volleys of inhibitory inputs to principal cell populations, thereby providing alternating temporal windows of relatively reduced and enhanced excitability in neuronal networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Internal Dynamics Determine the Cortical Response to Thalamic Stimulation
TL;DR: Cal calcium imaging of mouse thalamocortical slices is used to reconstruct the spatiotemporal dynamics of activity of layer 4 in the presence or absence of thalamic stimulation and finds spontaneous neuronal coactivations corresponded to intracellular UP states.
Journal ArticleDOI
SLM Microscopy: Scanless Two-Photon Imaging and Photostimulation with Spatial Light Modulators.
Volodymyr Nikolenko,Brendon O. Watson,Roberto Araya,Alan Woodruff,Darcy S. Peterka,Rafael Yuste +5 more
TL;DR: A “scanless” microscope that uses a diffractive spatial light modulator (SLM) to shape an incoming two-photon laser beam into any arbitrary light pattern, which allows the simultaneous imaging or photostimulation of different regions of a sample with three-dimensional precision.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modular Propagation of Epileptiform Activity: Evidence for an Inhibitory Veto in Neocortex
TL;DR: It is proposed that the interneurons that supply the vetoing inhibition define these modular circuit territories and epileptiform events progress in intermittent steps across the cortical network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spike Inference from Calcium Imaging Using Sequential Monte Carlo Methods
Joshua T. Vogelstein,Brendon O. Watson,Adam M. Packer,Rafael Yuste,Rafael Yuste,Bruno Jedynak,Liam Paninski +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a particle filter based on biophysical models of spiking, calcium dynamics, and fluorescence is proposed to infer when within a frame each spike occurs, using both simulations and in vitro fluorescence observations.
