    • Computing Complex Visual Features with Retinal Spike Times 

      Gütig, Robert; Gollisch, Tim; Sompolinsky, Haim I; Meister, Markus (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      Neurons in sensory systems can represent information not only by their firing rate, but also by the precise timing of individual spikes. For example, certain retinal ganglion cells, first identified in the salamander, ...
    • Monoaminergic Orchestration of Motor Programs in a Complex C. elegans Behavior 

      Donnelly, Jamie L.; Clark, Christopher M.; Leifer, Andrew M.; Pirri, Jennifer K.; Haburcak, Marian; Francis, Michael M.; Samuel, Aravinthan DT; Alkema, Mark J. (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      Monoamines provide chemical codes of behavioral states. However, the neural mechanisms of monoaminergic orchestration of behavior are poorly understood. Touch elicits an escape response in Caenorhabditis elegans where the ...
