Efficient population coding of naturalistic whisker motion in the ventro-posterior medial thalamus based on precise spike timing
The rodent whisker-associated thalamic nucleus (VPM) contains a somatotopic map where whisker representation is divided into distinct neuronal sub-populations, called 'barreloids'. Each barreloid projects to its associated cortical barrel column and so forms a gateway for incoming sensory...
