Spontaneous pauses in firing of external pallidum neurons are associated with exploratory behavior
Integrated analysis of external pallidum (GPe) neuronal firing, pupil size, and saccadic movements in non-human primates reveals that pauses in GPe firing are associated with pupil dilation. These results suggest that pauses in GPe activity might influence downstream structures in the basal ganglia...
