This study examines how motor cortex activity in mice changes during unimanual and bimanual food handling tasks, revealing distinct roles for different motor areas.

The paper studies spiking dynamics in mouse S1 and M1 cortices evoked by hand photostimulation, showing propagation speed, layer-specific activity, and PV interneuron involvement.

This study examines cortical activity during food-handling in mice, finding manipulation-specific activity across motor and somatosensory areas with distinct temporal profiles and predictive relationships to forelimb movements.

The paper studies corticocortical signaling in anesthetized mice using optogenetics and electrophysiology, finding rapid and scalable downstream activity driven by upstream activity.
