- Sensory stimuli elicit transient bursts of activity in neural populations; burst peak timing is variable across trials, but relative timing across coupled regions may be less variable.1
- Analytical methods have been developed to quantify relative timing and coupling of population bursts across interconnected brain regions in large-scale recordings.1
- Such methods support the study of how synchronized bursts convey information between regions and how strong functional coupling is reflected in burst timing.1 1
