Topic: excitatory postsynaptic neurons

We present, for the first time, insights into functional synchronization of individual neurons under a complete anatomical neural connectivity map at a massive scale. While functional synchrony has been extensively studied as a mechanism of information processing in the brain, previous work has been limited to small populations of neurons in vitro, analyses across entire brain regions, or simulations in silico. Here, we leverage the large scale connectomics dataset MICrONS to analyze synchrony through the proxy of Pearson correlation across neurons at a larger scale in vivo with direct anatomi
