Strong attentional modulation of V1/V2 activity implements a robust, contrast-invariant control mechanism for selective information processing
Lukas-Paul Rausch, Maik Schünemann, Eric Drebitz +3
When selective attention is devoted to one of multiple stimuli within receptive fields of neurons in visual area V4, cells respond as if only the attended stimulus was present. The…

Routing by spontaneous synchronization
Maik Schünemann, Udo Ernst
Selective attention allows to process stimuli which are behaviorally relevant, while attenuating distracting information. However, it is an open question what mechanisms implement…

A rigorous stochastic theory for spike pattern formation in recurrent neural networks with arbitrary connection topologies
Maik Schünemann, Udo Ernst, Marc Kesseböhmer
Cortical networks exhibit synchronized activity which often occurs in spontaneous events in the form of spike avalanches. Since synchronization has been causally linked to central…
