Cortical sensory processing across motivational states during goal-directed behavior

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Sami El-Boustani, Johannes Maria Mayrhofer

Behavioral states can influence performance of goal-directed sensorimotor tasks. Yet, it is unclear how altered neuronal sensory representations in these states relate to task performance and learning. We trained water-restricted mice in a two-whisker disc ...

Distinct Contributions of Whisker Sensory Cortex and Tongue-Jaw Motor Cortex in a Goal-Directed Sensorimotor Transformation

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Keita Tamura, Johannes Maria Mayrhofer, Sami El-Boustani

The neural circuits underlying goal-directed sensorimotor transformations in the mammalian brain are incompletely understood. Here, we compared the role of primary tongue-jaw motor cortex (tjM1) and primary whisker sensory cortex (wS1) in head-restrained m ...

Sparse, reliable, and long-term stable representation of periodic whisker deflections in the mouse barrel cortex

Johannes Maria Mayrhofer

The rodent whisker system is a preferred model for studying plasticity in the somatosensory cortex (barrel cortex). Contrarily, only a small amount of research has been conducted to characterize the stability of neuronal population activity in the barrel c ...

Pathway-, layer- and cell-type-specific thalamic input to mouse barrel cortex

Carl Petersen, Berat Semihcan Sermet, Johannes Maria Mayrhofer

Mouse primary somatosensory barrel cortex (wS1) processes whisker sensory information, receiving input from two distinct thalamic nuclei. The first-order ventral posterior medial (VPM) somatosensory thalamic nucleus most densely innervates layer 4 (L4) bar ...
