Protocol for behavioral and neural recording in macaques during a novelty detection task.
The neural mechanisms of novelty detection, especially in relation to behavior, are currently poorly understood. Here, we present a protocol for recording neuronal activity in macaque auditory cortex during novelty detection tasks. We describe steps for behavioral training, surgical headpost implantation, MRI-based electrode targeting, and electrophysiological recording. These steps allow direct assessment of the correlation between novelty detection behavior and neuronal activity. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Gong et al.1.
