Map of spiking activity underlying change detection in the mouse visual system

The paper presents a database of spiking activity in the mouse visual system during an image change detection task, revealing task-specific coding patterns across brain regions.

Differential encoding of temporal context and expectation under representational drift across hierarchically connected areas

The paper shows that visual areas differentially encode temporal context and expectation in natural scenes, with representational drift observed in lower areas but not higher ones.

Stimulus novelty uncovers coding diversity in survey of visual cortex

The paper identifies diverse functional neuron types in the visual cortex that process novel and familiar stimuli in mice.

A whole-brain monosynaptic input connectome to neuron classes in mouse visual cortex

The paper maps brain-wide monosynaptic inputs to specific neuron classes in mouse visual cortex using an improved rabies virus tracing strategy and identifies connectivity patterns within and between visual areas.

Reconciling functional differences in populations of neurons recorded with two-photon imaging and electrophysiology

This study compares neuronal responses in visual cortex using electrophysiology and two-photon imaging in awake mice, finding differences in responsiveness and selectivity and exploring data transformations to reconcile them.

A survey of spiking activity reveals a functional hierarchy of mouse corticothalamic visual areas

The paper presents a dataset and analysis of spiking activity across multiple mouse visual areas, revealing that functional connectivity mirrors anatomical hierarchy.

Experience shapes activity dynamics and stimulus coding of VIP inhibitory and excitatory cells in visual cortex

The paper examines how visual experience affects activity dynamics and stimulus coding in excitatory and VIP inhibitory cells in mouse visual cortex during a change detection task.

Similar visual perception in GCaMP6 transgenic mice despite differences in learning and motivation

The paper compares perceptual decisions across GCaMP6 transgenic mice during a visual task, finding high correlation despite differences in learning and motivation.

A large-scale, standardized physiological survey reveals higher order coding throughout the mouse visual cortex

The paper presents a large-scale dataset of neural activity in the mouse visual cortex and shows that responses to different stimuli are largely independent, suggesting multi-layer hierarchical computation.

The organization of intracortical connections by layer and cell class in the mouse brain

The paper expands the Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas by analyzing intracortical connections at the layer and cell class level, revealing modular organization and distinct projection patterns.
