Barrel cortex function

TL;DR: In vivo electrophysiological intracellular recordings showed that the pyramidal neurons of the deep layers of this cortex exhibit fast activation, hyperexcitability and hypersynchronizing characteristics in favor of their role as ictogenic neurons in absence seizures.

TL;DR: A detailed analysis of the brain wide distribution of the efferent projections of the rat barrel cortex is conducted, demonstrating how collections of shared experimental image data are suitable for brain-wide analysis and interpretation of connectivity mapping data.

TL;DR: The purpose of the present study was to examine the laminar projections of three areas of auditory cortex, pursuant to analysis of all areas, and to refine the working model of the primate auditory cortex.

TL;DR: In this article , a suite of tools including positive-going voltage indicators, a high-speed two-photon microscope, and denoising software enables prolonged imaging of electrical activity in neurons with limited toxicity.

TL;DR: A summary of the layout of cortical areas associated with vision and with other modalities, a computerized database for storing and representing large amounts of information on connectivity patterns, and the application of these data to the analysis of hierarchical organization of the cerebral cortex are reported on.

TL;DR: Fundamental concepts of nonlinear microscopy are reviewed and conditions relevant for achieving large imaging depths in intact tissue are discussed.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the organizing principles that govern the diversity of inhibitory interneurons and their circuits.

TL;DR: The timing of a sensory input relative to a gamma cycle determined the amplitude and precision of evoked responses and provided the first causal evidence that distinct network activity states can be induced in vivo by cell-type-specific activation.
