Journal article Nature communications · July 2018 Featured Publication How the brain preserves information about multiple simultaneous items is poorly understood. We report that single neurons can represent multiple stimuli by interleaving signals across time. We record single units in an auditory region, the inferior collicu ... Full text Open Access Cite

The eardrums move when the eyes move: A multisensory effect on the mechanics of hearing.

Journal article Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America · February 2018 Featured Publication Interactions between sensory pathways such as the visual and auditory systems are known to occur in the brain, but where they first occur is uncertain. Here, we show a multimodal interaction evident at the eardrum. Ear canal microphone measurements in huma ... Full text Open Access Cite

Beyond the labeled line: variation in visual reference frames from intraparietal cortex to frontal eye fields and the superior colliculus

Journal article Journal of Neurophysiology · December 20, 2017 Featured Publication We accurately perceive the visual scene despite moving our eyes ~3 times per second, an ability that requires incorporation of eye position and retinal information. In this study, we assessed how this neural computation unfolds across three interconnected ... Full text Open Access Cite

Different Stimuli, Different Spatial Codes: A Visual Map and an Auditory Rate Code for Oculomotor Space in the Primate Superior Colliculus

Journal article PLoS One · January 15, 2014 Featured Publication Maps are a mainstay of visual, somatosensory, and motor coding in many species. However, auditory maps of space have not been reported in the primate brain. Instead, recent studies have suggested that sound location may be encoded via broadly responsive ne ...

Looking at the ventriloquist: visual outcome of eye movements calibrates sound localization.

Journal article PLoS One · 2013 Featured Publication A general problem in learning is how the brain determines what lesson to learn (and what lessons not to learn). For example, sound localization is a behavior that is partially learned with the aid of vision. This process requires correctly matching a visua ... Full text Open Access Link to item Cite

Motor-related signals in the intraparietal cortex encode locations in a hybrid, rather than eye-centered reference frame.

Journal article Cereb Cortex · August 2009 Featured Publication The reference frame used by intraparietal cortex neurons to encode locations is controversial. Many previous studies have suggested eye-centered coding, whereas we have reported that visual and auditory signals employ a hybrid reference frame (i.e., a comb ... Full text Link to item Cite

A rate code for sound azimuth in monkey auditory cortex: implications for human neuroimaging studies.

Journal article J Neurosci · April 2, 2008 Featured Publication Is sound location represented in the auditory cortex of humans and monkeys? Human neuroimaging experiments have had only mixed success at demonstrating sound location sensitivity in primary auditory cortex. This is in apparent conflict with studies in monk ...

Visual- and saccade-related signals in the primate inferior colliculus.

Journal article Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A · November 6, 2007 Featured Publication The inferior colliculus (IC) is normally thought of as a predominantly auditory structure because of its early position in the ascending auditory pathway just before the auditory thalamus. Here, we show that a majority of IC neurons (64% of 180 neurons) in ... Full text Link to item Cite
