Transcranial magnetic stimulation to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex modulates single-neuron activity in humans

Abstract Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is an FDA-cleared treatment for depression, yet how cortical stimulation influences single neurons in deep brain circuits remains unknown. Using intracranial microelectrode recordings i...

Neural Bases for Working Memory of Natural Sound Textures

Holding sound objects in mind is critical to understanding the sound world around us. Auditory texture perception is thought to rely on extracting statistical properties of sounds over time, raising the question of how encoding duration influences subsequent maintenance of audito...
