One-shot learningâthe ability to form memories after a single, brief salient eventâis essential for behavioral flexibility in a dynamic world. However, how one-shot learning unfolds in the brain and whether it relies…
Chronically implanted brain-computer interfaces (BCI) for speech have demonstrated restoration of speech communication for people with severe motor impairment. Yet maintaining stable long-term performance remains a…
Parentâoffspring interactions play an important role in offspring survival. Although there is evidence that these interactions are predominantly guided by the right hemisphere, little is still known about the factors…
Improving behavioral performance relies on the ability to associate decisions with their positive and negative outcomes. Although neurons that associate actions with their consequences have been identified across…
