        The principle function of the central nervous system is to represent and transform 
        information and thereby mediate appropriate decisions and behaviors. The cerebral cortex 
        is one of the primary seats of the internal representations maintained and used in 
        perception, memory, decision making, motor control, and subjective experience, but the 
        basic coding scheme by which this information is carried and transformed by neurons is not 
        yet fully understood. This article defines and reviews how information is represented in 
        the firing rates and temporal patterns of populations of cortical neurons, with a 
        particular emphasis on how this information mediates behavior and experience.
