Rather than set a strict definition and exclude everything that falls short, researchers are moving towards a more “cluster-based” model of consciousness, basing the state on a collection of criteria ...

This important study investigates thalamocortical communication and cross-frequency coupling in human and animal models under anesthesia, seizures, and the effects of the serotonergic psychedelic ...

Background: The thalamus is not only a key relay node of the thalamocortical circuit but also a hub in the regulation of gait. Previous studies of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging ...

In Figure 6, we found many cerebral atrophied regions included cerebellum, cerebellar–thalamocortical, and basal ganglia–thalamocortical link circuits that implied patients with SCA3 revealed ...

Here, we optogenetically isolated the thalamocortical and intracortical excitatory inputs to individual layer 4 neurons and studied their binocular matching. In adult mice, the thalamic and cortical ...
