Sensory neuroscience: Visualizing the auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: bronzeCurrent Biology, 1998
Recent studies suggest that the auditory cortex may use sensory processing strategies analogous to those already established for the visual cortex. Nevertheless, fundamental differences in the way the visual and auditory worlds are structured have to be borne in mind.

Sensory Neuroscience: Taste Responses in Primary Olfactory Cortex [PDF]

open access: bronzeCurrent Biology, 2013
A new electrophysiological study in rodents demonstrates that taste-odor convergence occurs in posterior piriform olfactory cortex and calls for a reformulation of classic models of the central representation of flavor.

Neuroscience: From Sensory Discrimination to Choice in Gustatory Cortex [PDF]

open access: bronzeCurrent Biology, 2020
Sensory areas have been shown to be influenced by higher-order cognitive processes. Yet how do these top-down processes affect decisions? A recent study has revealed a dynamic evolution of neural activity from sensory discrimination to choice in rodent taste cortex.

Sensory neuroscience: Early value-based odor categorization [PDF]

open access: bronzeCurrent Biology, 2021
How the brain categorizes external stimuli in an experience-dependent, behaviorally relevant manner is a fundamental question. A new study reveals that mitral cells in the olfactory bulb of mice dynamically represent value- and category-related odor information in learned behavioral tasks.

Adaptive stimulus optimization for sensory systems neuroscience [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
In this paper, we review several lines of recent work aimed at developing practical methods for adaptive on-line stimulus generation for sensory neurophysiology. We consider various experimental paradigms where on-line stimulus optimization is utilized, including the classical optimal stimulus paradigm where the goal of experiments is to identify a ...

Functional Anatomy of the Sensory Nervous System: Updates From the Neuroscience Bench [PDF]

open access: bronzeToxicologic Pathology, 2019
The simple tripartite classification of sensory neurons as A-beta, A-delta, and C fibers fails to convey the complexity of the neurons that encode stimuli as diverse as the texture of a surface, the location of a pinprick, or the direction of hair movement as a breeze moves across the skin.

David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian: Pioneers in Sensory Biology and Neuroscience [PDF]

open access: diamondCureus
Sensory biology is a critical area within neuroscience, exploring how organisms respond to environmental stimuli such as temperature, pain, and mechanical forces. David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian have made landmark contributions to this field by identifying crucial receptors.
