Hierarchical Connectivity and Connection-Specific Dynamics in the Corticospinal–Corticostriatal Microcircuit in Mouse Motor Cortex

The generation of purposive movement by mammals involves coordinated activity in the corticospinal and corticostriatal systems, which are involved in different aspects of motor control. In the motor cortex, corticospinal and corticostriatal neurons are closely intermingled, raising the question of w...
