Retrograde Optogenetics Reveals Functional Convergence within a Corticotectal Pathway of Non-Human Primates

2025-08-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Understanding how the cerebral cortex communicates with subcortical areas to drive behavior remains a central question in system neuroscience. One key unresolved issue is whether prefrontal cortical outputs to motor-related subcortical regions carry predominantly motor commands or mixed sensory-motor signals. Retrograde optogenetics offers a powerful way to interrogate such projection-defined cir...
