Locus coeruleus spiking differently correlates with S1 cortex activity and pupil diameter in a tactile detection task

We examined the relationships between activity in the locus coeruleus (LC), activity in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1), and pupil diameter in mice performing a tactile detection task. While LC spiking consistently preceded S1 membrane potential depolarization and pupil dilation, the correlati...
