Attention decouples action potentials from the phase of local field potentials in macaque visual cortical area MT
Abstract Background The timing of action potentials (“spikes”) of cortical neurons has been shown to be aligned to the phase of low-frequency (< 10 Hz) local field potentials (LFPs) in several cortical areas. However, across the areas, this alignment varies and the role of this spike-phase coupli...
