Pyramidal cell diversity in the rat prefrontal cortex : electrophysiology, dopamine modulation and morphology

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is critically involved in many higher cognitive functions such as goaldirected behaviour, affective behaviour and especially working memory. In vivo extracellular recordings of PFC neural activity during working memory tasks show high variety in observed spiking patterns....
