Principles of visual cortex excitatory microcircuit organization
Christina Y. C. Chou, Hovy Ho‐Wai Wong, Connie Guo…·P. Jesper Sjöström
The paper introduces optomapping, a fast 2-photon optogenetic method validated by paired recordings, to study excitatory microcircuit organization in mouse V1, revealing log-normal synaptic strength distributions, layer-specific connectivity, and novel short-term plasticity patterns.
