摘要

Cognition and behaviour has long been considered as a network level phenomenon since different regions of the brain connect, converge and integrate to express a complex behaviour pattern. Brain wide connectivity matrices may thus reveal some crucial aspects of neuronal integration. Authors describe the crucial role of neuronal integration in mouse as somatosensory subnetwork converges information to prefrontal cortex. Paper describes the communication across entire cortex to study the neuronal inputs and outputs.
