Neural probes are among the most widely applied tools for studying neural circuit functions and treating neurological disorders. Given the complexity of the nervous system, it is highly desirable to monitor and modulate neural activities simultaneously at the cellular scale. In this review, we provide an overview of recent developments in multifunctional neural probes that allow simultaneous neural activity recording and modulation through different modalities, including chemical, electrical, and optical stimulation. We will focus on the material and structural design of multifunctional neural probes and their interfaces with neural tissues. Finally, future challenges and prospects of multifunctional neural probes will be discussed.

The cognitive neuroscience of human aging seeks to identify neural mechanisms behind the commonalities and individual differences in age-related behavioral changes. This goal has been pursued predominantly through structural or "task-free" resting-state functional neuroimaging. The former has elucidated the material foundations of behavioral decline, and the latter has provided key insight into how functional brain networks change with age.

Development of cortical visual prostheses requires optimization of evoked responses to electrical stimulation to reduce charge requirements and improve safety, efficiency, and efficacy. One promising approach is timing stimulation to the local field potential (LFP), where action potentials have been found to occur preferentially at specific phases. To assess the relationship between electrical stimulation and the phase of the LFP, we recorded action potentials from primary (V1) and secondary (V2) visual cortex in marmosets while delivering single-pulse electrical microstimulation at different phases of the local field potential.

Here, we test a hypothesis that detection is supported by a distinct inference within generative models of perceptual content. We develop a novel visual perception paradigm that probes such inferences by manipulating both expectations about stimulus content (stimulus identity) and detection of content (stimulus presence).

Neuropixels probes contain thousands of electrodes across one or more shanks and are sufficiently small to allow chronic recording of neural activity in freely behaving small animals. However, the joint increase in the number of electrodes and miniaturization of the probe package has led to a compromise in which groups of electrodes share a single read-out channel and only a fraction of the electrodes can be read out at any given time. Experimenters then face the challenge of selecting a subset of electrodes (i.

While the content of subjective (personal) experience is inaccessible to external observers, behavioral proxies can frame the nature of that experience and suggest its cognitive requirements. Directed attention is widely recognized as a feature of animal awareness. This descriptive study used the frequency of gaze shifts in lizards and birds as an indicator of the rate at which the animals change the perceptual segmentation of their ongoing experience.
