The paper analyzes neuronal variability across brain states to understand how factors like internal dynamics, behavior, and stimuli influence sensory processing over time.

This study introduces a marked point process representation of oscillatory bursts to reduce volume conduction noise in multi-channel neural recordings, preserving behavioral and causal information.

The paper analyzes spike-field causal flow in different cortical layers and areas, finding frequency-specific laminar organization and directional information flow.
