Neural computation via neural geometry: a place code for inter-whisker timing in the barrel cortex?

The place theory proposed by Jeffress (1948) is still the dominant model of how the brain represents the movement of sensory stimuli between sensory receptors. According to the place theory, delays in signalling between neurons, dependent on the distances between them, compensate for time difference...
