Dynamic attention signalling in V4: Relation to fast‐spiking/non‐fast‐spiking cell class and population coupling

Abstract

The computational role of a neuron during attention depends on its firing properties, neurotransmitter expression and functional connectivity. Neurons in the visual cortical area V4 are reliably engaged by selective attention but exhibit diversity in the effect of attention on firing rates and correlated variability. It remains unclear what specific neuronal properties shape these
