Physiology of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in mouse primary visual cortex: coincidence detection through bursting.

L5 pyramidal neurons are the only neocortical cell type with dendrites reaching all six layers of cortex, casting them as one of the main integrators in the cortical column. What is the nature and mode of computation performed in mouse primary visual cortex (V1) given the physiology of L5 pyramidal...
