Cholinergic neuromodulation controls directed temporal communication in neocortex <i>in vitro</i>
Acetylcholine is the primary neuromodulator involved in cortical arousal in mammals. Cholinergic modulation is involved in conscious awareness, memory formation and attention – processes that involve intercommunication between different cortical regions. Such communication is achieved in p...
