Abstract

In this issue of Neuron, MacLean et al. report that thalamic stimulation can evoke spatiotemporal sequences of neocortical neuronal activity similar to spontaneous UP states. This could suggest that the patterns of activity associated with the processing of sensory input might be replayed during spontaneous activity.
