GPe neurons are uncorrelated, but in PD become oscillatory & correlated, allegedly disrupting independent channels thru the basal ganglia. Our new preprint, w/ the Wilson lab, shows how phase response curves of independent GP neurons driven by sinusoids predict these correlations

Great work, once again, from @GoldbergLab and @LTiroshi !!!
I’m thrilled to share that our latest research, unveiling the unreliability of striatal neural responses through a unique application of sparse labeling, has been officially published!
