Abstract Neuronal bursts are distinct high-frequency firing patterns that present ubiquitously throughout mammalian brain circuits. Although considered part of a universal neural code, the information they convey has long been subject debate. In this study, we investigated neuronal activity in simultaneously recorded regions thalamocortical system freely moving mice as learned stimulus-outcome associations go/no-go task. We discovered that, parallel with learning, populations neurons emerge...
Abstract Sensory discrimination tasks are valuable tools to study neuronal mechanisms of perception and learning. Most the previously developed for electrophysiological imaging studies in rodents require animals be head-fixed. However, implementing neurophysiological recordings into more ethologically realistic settings with unrestrained has been challenging, especially somatosensory studies. This introduces a tactile task freely moving mice, integrating electrophysiology calcium cellular...
