Learning to represent signals spike by spike
PLOS Computational Biology, 2020 A key question in neuroscience is at which level functional meaning emerges from biophysical phenomena. In most vertebrate systems, precise functions are assigned at the level of neural populations, while single-neurons are deemed unreliable and redundant.

Decorrelation of neural-network activity by inhibitory feedback [PDF]
, 2012 Correlations in spike-train ensembles can seriously impair the encoding of information by their spatio-temporal structure. An inevitable source of correlation in finite neural networks is common presynaptic input to pairs of neurons.
