<p>

see SNI talk on Oct 5 2017: &nbsp;wow!</p>

<p>

awake behaving mice; &nbsp;Mouse barrel cortex... &nbsp;(one whisker per barrel)</p>

<p>

1st goal: &nbsp;understand role of horiz and vertical connections across the six major cortical layers.</p>

<p>

horizontal: &nbsp;provide context...</p>

<p>

we use 2P imaging and in vivo whole cell voltage clamp... actively whisking mice

to encode/ decode tactile stim.</p>

<p>

2nd goal: &nbsp;control activity in 1000s of neurons at single cell res.

how do patterns of spikes in space and time repr external world.</p>

<p>

3rd goal: &nbsp;global activity across multiple areas &nbsp;=> &nbsp;appropriate behavior in an enviro.</p>

<p>

whole brain imaging + &nbsp;electrophys.</p>
