Thalamic Circuit Diversity: Modulation of the Driver/Modulator Framework
The idea that dorsal thalamic inputs can be divided into drivers, which provide the primary excitatory drive for the relay of information to cortex, and modulators, which alter the gain of signal transmission, has provided a valuable organizing principle for the study of thalamic function.
