This study shows that layer 6 corticothalamic neurons in awake mice encode tactile stimuli presence but not fine details, and predict behavioral outcomes in a detection task.

This study shows that L6CT neuron activation induces high gamma oscillations in the cortex through cortico-thalamo-cortical and intracortical pathways, with the latter shaping oscillation frequency.

The paper examines spike reliability in cortical neurons, finding that parvalbumin+ interneurons show high reliability, while excitatory neurons show lower reliability, with functional implications for inhibition and spiking rate coding.

The paper uses a hidden Markov model to relate latent dynamics of neural spiking activity in the somatosensory cortex to classical brain state metrics like local field potential fluctuations and behavior.

The paper investigates rapid sensory adaptation across multiple timescales in the thalamocortical circuit using multi-electrode recordings in mice, revealing two distinct adaptation timescales and their neural mechanisms.

This study examines sensory deficits in a 6-OHDA-induced Parkinson's disease mouse model, revealing varied tactile sensation impairments alongside motor and dopaminergic changes.

The paper examines how arousal correlates with cortical voltage and hemodynamic signals in mice, finding distinct spatial and frequency-dependent patterns.

This study investigates how cortical layer 6 feedback neurons modulate thalamic activity in awake mice, showing they can suppress or enhance thalamic spiking based on firing rate and synchrony.
