Layer-specific optogenetic activation of pyramidal neurons causes beta–gamma entrainment of neonatal networks
Oscillations in cortical activity during development are important for functional maturation. Here, the authors use optogenetics in neonatal mice to determine a causal role for pyramidal cell firing in different prelimbic cortex layers in generating beta–gamma range activity.
