Cortical fine timing and behavior
Precise stimulus timing can drive behavior Not cortical
Sensory stimuli can elicit precisely timed spikes in cortex
behaviorally relevant?
Can precise cortical spike timing drive behavior? Hard-wired or use-dependent?

Using artificially induced, precisely timed cortical spikes to drive behavior
Behavioral paradigm: 2-Alternative Forced Choice task. Implant 2 electrodes (A & B, 1.1mm apart) chronically into left
auditory cortex,directly stimulate A and B Task: simultaneous A&B vs. B-∆t-A
t = 0 LEFT t > 0 RIGHT

How about barrel cortex?
Arabzadeh E. et. al, 2003
Barrel cortex neurons can respond precisely to a whisker stimulation

Performance improved for sensory deprived animals with training
y=0.5+(k-0.5)*(1-exp(-t/tau)) k: asymptotic performance, tau: time constant

Tau is bigger for deprived animals than for control animals
p=0.0013

Conclusions The ability to exploit timing information
behaviorally is use-dependent Sensory deprived animals were severely impaired in
cortical timing discrimination, suggesting that sensory input during development is essential in establishing the ability of fine timing discrimination in the cortex
Sensory deprived animals showed more improvement with training than the control animals, suggesting that sensory deprived animals could learn to use the cortical timing cue with direct cortical stimulation input
