Dynamic perceptual feature selectivity in primary somatosensory cortex upon reversal learning

Do cortical neurons stably represent stimulus features in different contexts? Here, using calcium imaging, the authors show that texture selectivity of individual neurons is dynamic during reversal learning. For a subclass this is contingent on the associated reward and forecasts the onset of learni...
