Mouse S1 will be a powerful platform to identify the control circuits for attentional capture.

Deepa will be working on this in her own lab at Univ. of California, Riverside!

S1 pyramidal cells showed increased sensory gain and receptive field shifts toward the attended whisker. We used 2p imaging to measure the topography of the 'attentional spotlight'-- a Gaussian hill of sensory gain, 1.5 cortical columns in radius, that shifted as mice attended different whiskers.
