1/ Very excited to announce the 🚨 #tweeprint 🚨 for our new paper "Cortical integration of higher-order thalamic inputs is lineage-dependent" - check it out here biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_neursci or read on for some serious devneuro/systems crossover mashup...
2/ Sensory processing requires that the brain is able to integrate info about a stimulus with info that reflects the context in which it was experienced. In the cortex, the major sources of these types of info are the first-order (sensory) and higher-order (context) thalamus
3/ Higher-order inputs, in particular, have been implicated in several fundamental cognitive processes like attention, plasticity and conscious perception, and are known to shape the sensory response properties of cortical neurons
