AI Summary
The study shows that fast synaptic inhibition in the mammalian cortex is influenced by network activity and has important implications for the cortex's response to stimuli.
In this study, Burman et al. demonstrate that the way in which fast synaptic inhibition operates in the intact mammalian cortex is linked to the level of activity within the network. The authors further show that this dynamic inhibition has profound implications for how the cortex responds to incoming stimuli.
