The mediodorsal pulvinar coordinates the macaque fronto-parietal network during rhythmic spatial attention

The mediodorsal pulvinar coordinates the macaque fronto-parietal network during rhythmic spatial attention

Recent evidence shows that spatial attention is discontinuous over time, sampling locations in rhythmic cycles (3–6 Hz). Here, the authors show that the pulvinar has a role in coordinating this rhythmic sampling, with neural activity propagating from pulvinar to cortex during periods of engagement....
