Propagating Waves in Visual Cortex
Spatiotemporal patterns of cortical activation occur superimposed upon sensory, motor, and cognitive maps. The papers by Benucci et al. and Xu et al. in this issue of Neuron demonstrate that visual responses propagate in space and may serve to link different visual areas. This is an important step toward understanding how cortical maps relate to activation patterns, a prerequisite to understand...
متن کاملGeneration and Control of Propagating Waves in Visual Cortex
Visual stimuli evoke waves of electrical activity that propagate across the visual cortex of freshwater turtles. Analyses using the Karhunen-Loéve method reveal that the spatiotemporal dynamics of the waves encode information about the stimuli. This study used a large-scale mathematical model of turtle visual cortex to understand how cellular elements of the cortex control the generation and pr...
متن کاملPropagating Waves in Human Motor Cortex
Previous studies in non-human primates (NHPs) have shown that beta oscillations (15-30 Hz) of local field potentials (LFPs) in the arm/hand areas of primary motor cortex (MI) propagate as traveling waves across the cortex. These waves exhibited two stereotypical features across animals and tasks: (1) The waves propagated in two dominant modal directions roughly 180° apart, and (2) their propaga...
متن کاملTraveling Waves in Visual Cortex
Electrode recordings and imaging studies have revealed that localized visual stimuli elicit waves of activity that travel across primary visual cortex. Traveling waves are present also during spontaneous activity, but they can be greatly reduced by widespread and intensive visual stimulation. In this Review, we summarize the evidence in favor of these traveling waves. We suggest that their subs...
متن کاملFast propagating waves within the rodent auditory cortex.
Central processing of acoustic signals is assumed to take place in a stereotypical spatial and temporal pattern involving different fields of auditory cortex. So far, cortical propagating waves representing such patterns have mainly been demonstrated by optical imaging, repeatedly in the visual and somatosensory cortex. In this study, the surface of rat auditory cortex was mapped by recording l...
