OIST Neuroscience Online Seminar (ONOS)

Prof. Seung-Hee Lee, Associate Professor, Sensory Processing Lab, KAIST

Unraveling cortical circuits for perceptual decision making Sensory information is a key environmental cue that makes animals guide their behavior. However, it is still unclear how cortical circuits permit appropriate responses to relevant sensory stimuli while inhibiting others. Here, we unraveled cortical circuits that are important for perceptual decision-making in mice performing Go/No-go tasks. We identified parietal and frontal circuits that show unique properties in integrating sensory information and guide action decisions. I will discuss how these circuits work in concert for animals to perform proper action decisions upon the sensory evidence.
