We present a model connecting eye movements and cortical state. Its structure includes simulated retinal images, motion detection, feature detectors and layers of spiking neurons. The designed scheme shows how the effect of micro-saccadic scale eye movements can lead to successful figure segregation in a figure-ground paradigm, by inducing changes in the neural dynamics through the time evolution of the inhibition range.

Introduction: This study investigated the impact of dog training intervention (DTI) on verbal, non-verbal, and maladaptive behaviors in autistic preschoolers. Previous research has demonstrated the benefits of animal-assisted interventions, but this study specifically focused on changes during the DTI.
Methods: We analyzed video recordings of 37 autistic children (mean age 4:7 years, SD = 1:1) from special education preschools, comparing their behaviors during the initial and final intervention sessions.

Researchers using eye tracking are heavily dependent on software and hardware tools to perform their studies, from recording eye tracking data and visualizing it, to processing and analyzing it. This article provides an overview of available tools for research using eye trackers and discusses considerations to make when choosing which tools to adopt for one's study.

The analysis of eye movements is a noninvasive, reliable and fast method to detect and quantify brain (dys)function. Here, we investigated the performance of two novel eye-trackers-the Thomas Oculus Motus-research mobile (TOM-rm) and the TOM-research stationary (TOM-rs)-and compared them with the performance of a well-established video-based eye-tracker, i.e.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the use of continuous video-electroencephalography (cEEG) to detect seizures in infants and children in a cardiovascular intensive care unit (CVICU), emphasizing symptoms and risk factors that led to cEEG evaluations.
- Among 605 cEEGs performed over 38 months, seizures were found in 9% of cases, with a significantly higher detection rate (30%) when both vital sign and non-vital sign symptoms were present, while isolated vital sign changes did not yield any seizures.
- The results indicated that certain symptoms (like gaze deviation and abnormal limb movements) and risk factors (like preexisting epilepsy and recent neuroscience surgeries) were linked to a higher likelihood of seizure detection, highlighting

The aperiodic exponent of the power spectrum of signals in several neuroimaging modalities has been found to be related to the excitation/inhibition balance of the neural system. Leveraging the rich temporal dynamics of resting-state pupil fluctuations, the present study investigated the association between the aperiodic exponent of pupil fluctuations and the neural excitation/inhibition balance in attentional processing. In separate phases, we recorded participants' pupil size during resting state and assessed their attentional orienting using the Posner cueing tasks with different cue validities (i.
