FMRI activity in the macaque cerebellum evoked by intracortical microstimulation of the primary somatosensory cortex: evidence for polysynaptic propagation. [PDF]
Simultaneous electrical microstimulation (EM) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a useful tool for probing connectivity across brain areas in vivo.

Separate representations of target and timing cue locations in the supplementary eye fields [PDF]
When different stimuli indicate where and when to make an eye movement, the brain areas involved in oculomotor control must selectively plan an eye movement to the stimulus that encodes the target position and also encode the information available from ...

Cortical Response to Acute Implantation of the Utah Optrode Array in Macaque Cortex
Delivering light deep into the brain over a large volume while causing minimal tissue damage is a major challenge for non‐human primate optogenetics. This study evaluates Utah Optrode Array designs in vivo, revealing how changes in shank geometry, surface texture, and insertion parameters minimize acute damage—offering a path toward high‐precision ...

A prolonged experimental febrile seizure results in motor map reorganization in adulthood
Introduction: Clinical studies have suggested that children experiencing a febrile seizure (FS) before the age of 1 year have persistent deficits, but it is unknown whether these seizures lead to permanent cortical reorganization and alterations in ...

Post-ischemic reorganization of sensory responses in cerebral cortex
IntroductionSensorimotor integration is critical for generating skilled, volitional movements. While stroke tends to impact motor function, there are also often associated sensory deficits that contribute to overall behavioral deficits.

Topography of supplementary eye field afferents to frontal eye field in macaque: Implications for mapping between saccade coordinate systems [PDF]
Two discrete areas in frontal cortex are involved in generating saccadic eye movements—the frontal eye field (FEF) and the supplementary eye field (SEF).

Toward Natural Limb Function: A New Era in Prosthetic Innovation
The past decade has witnessed groundbreaking clinical implementation of neuroprosthetic limbs driven by signals from peripheral targets (eg, nerves and muscle) and the brain to restore limb function for individuals with limb loss or impairment. In this review, we highlight recent key clinical trials in peripheral neuroprosthetic interfaces directly ...
