Thalamocortical excitability modulation guides human perception under uncertainty
J. Q. Kosciessa, U. Lindenberger, et al.
This fascinating study by Julian Q. Kosciessa, Ulman Lindenberger, and Douglas D. Garrett explores how the brain adapts to uncertainty by altering stimulus processing. Discover how heightened uncertainty leads to an asynchronous, excited state in the brain, boosting sensitivity to features through the pivotal role of thalamic activity.
