| Research Abstract |
We showed that the receptive field of septal cells was independent of paralemniscal inputs, and that septal cells derived their receptive field input from neurons in the dorsal part of the thalamic barreloids. We further showed that the terminal field of single thalamic neurons in a barrel is markedly anisotropic, and that the location of boutons with respect to the somatotopic map is either correlated or anticorrelated with them angular tuning of the thalamic neuron.
