Linear summation of outputs in a balanced network modelof motor cortex

Given the nonlinearities of the the neural circuitry's elements, we would expect corticalcircuits to respond nonlinearly when activated. Surprisingly, when two points in the motorcortex are activated simultaneously, the EMG responses are the linear sum of the responsesevoked by each of the poin...
