eLife, 2018 Predictive coding theories argue that recent experience establishes expectations in the brain that generate prediction errors when violated. Prediction errors provide a possible explanation for repetition suppression, where evoked neural activity is ...

The functional form of value normalization in human reinforcement learning
eLife, 2023 Reinforcement learning research in humans and other species indicates that rewards are represented in a context-dependent manner. More specifically, reward representations seem to be normalized as a function of the value of the alternative options.

Sensory-memory interactions via modular structure explain errors in visual working memory
eLifeErrors in stimulus estimation reveal how stimulus representation changes during cognitive processes. Repulsive bias and minimum variance observed near cardinal axes are well-known error patterns typically associated with visual orientation perception ...

Rate and timing of cortical responses driven by separate sensory channels
eLife, 2015 The sense of touch comprises multiple sensory channels that each conveys characteristic signals during interactions with objects. These neural signals must then be integrated in such a way that behaviorally relevant information about the objects is ...

On the Role of LGN/V1 Spontaneous Activity as an Innate Learning Pattern for Visual Development
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Correlated, spontaneous neural activity is known to play a necessary role in visual development, but the higher-order statistical structure of these coherent, amorphous patterns has only begun to emerge in the past decade.

Surface color and predictability determine contextual modulation of V1 firing and gamma oscillations
eLife, 2019 The integration of direct bottom-up inputs with contextual information is a core feature of neocortical circuits. In area V1, neurons may reduce their firing rates when their receptive field input can be predicted by spatial context.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

Looking for Image Statistics: Active Vision With Avatars in a Naturalistic Virtual Environment
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 The efficient coding hypothesis posits that sensory systems are tuned to the regularities of their natural input. The statistics of natural image databases have been the topic of many studies, which have revealed biases in the distribution of ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.
