Understanding the neural mechanisms governing different states of cortical processing is pivotal for unraveling the cognitive processes underpinning perception. Observing freely-behaving animals offers a naturalistic environment that elicits a manifold of dynamically changing cognitive and behavioral states, and thus reflects real-world scenarios more accurately than under anesthesia or head-fixed conditions. In this study, we explore the interplay between evoked and spontaneous population activity and its impact on auditory processing within the primary auditory cortex of freely-moving gerbil
