Layer specific sharpening of frequency tuning by selective attention in primary auditory cortex

MN O'Connell, A Barczak, CE Schroeder… - Journal of …, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
Recent electrophysiological and neuroimaging studies provide converging evidence that
attending to sounds increases the response selectivity of neuronal ensembles even at the …

Information diversity in individual auditory cortical neurons is associated with functionally distinct coordinated neuronal ensembles

JZ See, NY Homma, CA Atencio, VS Sohal… - Scientific reports, 2021 - nature.com

Recent evidence indicates the existence of pyramidal cells (PCs) and interneurons with
nontrivial tuning characteristics for sound attributes in the primary auditory cortex (A1) of …

Synaptic basis for the generation of response variation in auditory cortex

C Tao, G Zhang, C Zhou, L Wang, S Yan, LI Zhang… - Scientific Reports, 2016 - nature.com
Cortical neurons can exhibit significant variation in their responses to the same sensory
stimuli, as reflected by the reliability and temporal precision of spikes. However the synaptic …

Functional organization and population dynamics in the mouse primary auditory cortex

G Rothschild, I Nelken, A Mizrahi - Nature neuroscience, 2010 - nature.com
Cortical processing of auditory stimuli involves large populations of neurons with distinct
individual response profiles. However, the functional organization and dynamics of local …

An emergent population code in primary auditory cortex supports selective attention to spectral and temporal sound features

JD Downer, JR Verhein, BC Rapone… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
Textbook descriptions of primary sensory cortex (PSC) revolve around single neurons'
representation of low-dimensional sensory features, such as visual object orientation in …
