Dynamic states of population activity in prefrontal cortical networks of freely-moving macaque

Authors develop an integrated wireless system to examine brain states in freely-moving monkeys. They show that neural population activity in prefrontal cortex covaries with natural behavioral dynamics. Active behavior is associated with elevated arousal and increases in spiking activity while reduci...

Active behavior is associated with elevated arousal and increases in spiking activity while reducing low-frequency synchrony within cortical populations.
