Up and Down States and Memory Consolidation Across Somatosensory, Entorhinal, and Hippocampal Cortices
Here we review what is currently known about these mechanisms in three anatomically distinct but interconnected cortical areas: somatosensory cortex, entorhinal cortex, and the hippocampus. In doing ...

An extended retinotopic map of mouse cortex
Our results extend our understanding of the organization of mouse cortex to include up to 16 distinct retinotopically organized regions. Our eyes send information about the world around us to a region ...
