Multiple neuron activity carries a large amount of stimulus-related information that is expressed in multineuronal activation patterns.
To further understand the role of VTA DA and Non-DA neurons in animal's motivational locomotor behaviors, we subjected mice to voluntary wheel running while we simultaneously recorded multiple neuronal activities in the VTA area.
Thus, to faithfully encode the properties of visual stimuli the brain engages multiple neurons into activity patterns evolving on multiple timescales.
In a different model, behavioral state would be encoded across multiple neurons whose activity does not faithfully track O2 concentration, but which on average show O2-evoked changes in Ca2+ levels.
Segmentation is achieved through temporal correlation of neuron activities.
Recording the activity of multiple neurons in intact circuits remains challenging for in vivo study because current tools cannot simultaneously report activity and connectivity.
We used a microwire array recording technique to record the pain-evoked neural activity of multiple neurons in freely moving rats.
The spatial aspect is covered by including the simultaneous activity of multiple neurons.
Using large-scale in vivo neural recording techniques that we have recently developed [37] [39], we simultaneously recorded the spike activity of multiple neurons as well as local field potentials from the CA1 region of the mouse hippocampus.
As all recordings were from extracellular electrodes, each electrode can detect activity from multiple neurons.
