The Role of Cortical Inhibitory Interneurons in Auditory Signal Detection

Menashe, Nadav (University of Oregon, 2019)

For years, researchers have been trying to uncover how different auditory areas in the brain allow us to segregate signals from noise. The goal of this study was to use a mouse model to understand how two types of cortical ...
Using Information Theory to Understand Neural Representation in the Auditory Cortex

Cui, Hannah(Qiaochu) (University of Oregon, 2022)

Neurons in the brain face the challenge of representing sensory stimuli in a way that accurately encodes the features of these stimuli while minimizing the effects of noise. This thesis will use the concept of mutual ...
