Strong neuron-to-body coupling implies weak neuron-to-neuron coupling in motor cortex
Some cortical neurons fire together like a synchronized chorus, while others fire independently like soloists. Here, the authors show that soloist neurons in motor cortex tend to control body movements, while the choristers do not, and that soloists can become choristers by increasing inhibition.
