Measuring the functional organization of the neocortex at large and small scales
Abstract
Sensory cortices are commonly structured topographically; however, the extent to which this organization principle is preserved at the microcircuit level is debated. In this issue of Neuron, Issa et al. (2014) revisit this question by combining calcium imaging in awake mice at large scales encompassing the whole auditory cortex and small scales providing single-cell resolution.
