Small groups of neighbouring neurons in neocortex are able to form separate microsystem in model situation of habituation during the local repetitive action of acetylcholine. This new functional unit exhibits a number of main properties which are characteristic of systemic processes of habituation. Only some of the properties don't reproduce in microsystem of cortical neurons. There is no effect of full extinction of responses and no direct relationship between the decrease of speed quantity of responses and stimulus action frequency. The data obtained are considered as significant argument for identification of special intermediate level of integrative processes--microsystem level.

Infrared neural stimulation has consistently shown that temperature is a critical neuronal state variable. However, a comprehensive understanding of the biophysical background is essential. In this study, using high-density laminar electrode recordings, we investigated the impact of pulsed and continuous-wave infrared illumination on cortical neurons in anesthetized rats ([Formula: see text]).

To infer intent, brain-computer interfaces must extract features that accurately estimate neural activity. However, the degradation of signal quality over time hinders the use of feature-engineering techniques to recover functional information. By using neural data recorded from electrode arrays implanted in the cortices of three human participants, here we show that a convolutional neural network can be used to map electrical signals to neural features by jointly optimizing feature extraction and decoding under the constraint that all the electrodes must use the same neural-network parameters.

Ultraflexible neural electrodes have shown superior stability compared with rigid electrodes in long-term recordings, owing to their low mechanical mismatch with brain tissue. It is desirable to detect neurotransmitters as well as electrophysiological signals for months in brain science. This work proposes a stable electronic interface that can simultaneously detect neural electrical activity and dopamine concentration deep in the brain.

Mechanisms of computation in sensorimotor cortex must be flexible and robust to support skilled motor behavior. Patterns of neuronal coactivity emerge as a result of computational processes. Pairwise spike-time statistical relationships, across the population, can be summarized as a functional network (FN) which retains single-unit properties.
