The paper develops a nonlinear theory to predict cortical responses to optogenetic perturbations and identifies a feature-tuned inhibition pathway involving SST interneurons.

The paper investigates how optogenetic stimulation reshuffles firing rates in mouse and monkey V1 by analyzing neuronal responses and developing theoretical models.

The paper investigates how neuronal oscillations affect chaotic dynamics in cortical circuits, finding that oscillatory input increases chaotic measures at the network's resonance frequency.

The paper uses optogenetic stimulation to investigate cortical contributions to cross-orientation suppression and finds that cortical circuits provide limited suppression, with sublinear integration observed at higher firing rates.

The paper shows how inhibitory subnetworks in mouse V1 cortex switch between cooperation and competition to adapt to varying input strength and size.

The paper investigates how optogenetic and behavioral inputs modulate V1 circuit responses, showing that specific interneurons stabilize the circuit and locomotion affects excitatory cells through direct drive.

The paper analyzes paradoxical effects in excitatory/inhibitory neuronal networks, showing conditions under which cell types exhibit paradoxical responses based on network stability and connectivity.
