A Sensorimotor Circuit in Mouse Cortex for Visual Flow Predictions.

Neuron | 2017

The cortex is organized as a hierarchical processing structure. Feedback from higher levels of the hierarchy, known as top-down signals, have been shown to be involved in attentional and contextual modulation of sensory responses. Here we argue that top-down input to the primary visual cortex (V1) from A24b and the adjacent secondary motor cortex (M2) signals a prediction of visual flow based on motor output. A24b/M2 sends a dense and topographically organized projection to V1 that targets most neurons in layer 2/3. By imaging the activity of A24b/M2 axons in V1 of mice learning to navigate a 2D virtual environment, we found that their activity was strongly correlated with locomotion and resulting visual flow feedback in an experience-dependent manner. When mice were trained to navigate a left-right inverted virtual environment, correlations of neural activity with behavior reversed to match visual flow. These findings are consistent with a predictive coding interpretation of visual processing.

NeuroMatic (software resource)

RRID:SCR_004186

NeuroMatic is a collection of Igor Pro functions for analyzing electrophysiological data. By allowing users to organize their data into Sets and Groups, NeuroMatic makes it relatively easy to compute transformations and statistical analyses on their data, including scaling, alignment averaging, baseline subtraction, spike detection, stationarity analysis, rise-time computations, etc. Being open source and modular designed, NeuroMatic also allows users to develop their own analysis functions that can be easily incorporated into NeuroMatic's framework. Note, if you have reached this page in search of a freeware tool for neuronal reconstructions, you are more likely to be interested in Neuromantic, a software package that sounds like NeuroMatic, but is not quite the same. Features of NeuroMatic Include * Sorting, Scaling, Averaging, Interpolation * Max / Min / Mean / Level / Rise Time / FWHM / Slope Measurements * Stability / Stationarity Analysis * Event Detection * Waveform Template Matching * Spike Raster Plots * Interspike-Interval and Peri-Stimulus Time (PST) Histograms * Compact Easy-to-Use Interface * Modular design as a basis for your own procedures * Extra space for your own buttons and controls * Import functions for Axograph and Pclamp data * Automatic macro generation for batch processing Supporting Agencies: MRC, Wellcome Trust Spike, Event, Fit, NClamp, Acquisition, spike train, EPSP, IPSP, IPSC, EPSC
