The quality of the representation of an object's motion is limited by the noise in the sensory input as well as by an intrinsic ambiguity due to the spatial limitation of the visual motion analyzers (aperture problem). Perceptual and oculom...

High-level specification of how the brain represents and categorizes the causes of its sensory input allows to link "what is to be done" (perceptual task) with "how to do it" (neural network calculation). In this article, we describe how th...

Successful adaptation relies on the ability to learn the consequence of our actions in different environments. However, understanding the neural bases of this ability still represents one of the great challenges of system neuroscience. In f...

A dynamic and recurrent artificial neural network was used to investigate the functional properties of firing patterns observed in the primary motor (M1) and the primary somatosensory (S1) cortex of the behaving monkey during control of pre...

In awake animals, the cerebral cortex displays an "activated" state, with distinct characteristics compared to other states like slow-wave sleep or anesthesia. These characteristics include a sustained depolarized membrane potential (V(m)) ...
Paradoxical (REM) sleep genesis: the switch from an aminergic-cholinergic to a GABAergic-glutamatergic hypothesis [0.03%]

In the middle of the last century, Michel Jouvet discovered paradoxical sleep (PS), a sleep phase paradoxically characterized by cortical activation and rapid eye movements and a muscle atonia. Soon after, he showed that it was still presen...

The successful achievement of harmonious locomotor movement results from the integrated operation of all body segments. Here, we will review current knowledge on the functional organization of spinal networks involved in mammalian locomotio...

In mammals, the master circadian clock that drives many biochemical, physiological and behavioral rhythms is located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the hypothalamus. Generation and maintenance of circadian rhythms rely on complex in...

Circadian clocks are autonomous time-keeping mechanisms that allow living organisms to predict and adapt to environmental rhythms of light, temperature and food availability. At the molecular level, circadian clocks use clock and clock-cont...

Metamorphosis in the anuran frog, Xenopus laevis, involves profound structural and functional transformations in most of the organism's physiological systems as it encounters a complete alteration in body plan, habitat, mode of respiration ...
