Local cortical desynchronization and pupil-linked arousal differentially shape brain states for optimal sensory performance

Instantaneous brain states have consequences for our sensation, perception, and behaviour. Fluctuations in arousal and neural desynchronization likely pose perceptually relevant states. However, their relationship and their relative impact on perception is unclear. We here show that, at the single-t...
