Overview
Abstract
Neurons couple to various degrees to the activity level of the local neighboring population whereby strongly coupled “choristers” and weakly coupled “soloists” have been identified as two extremes of a continuous spectrum. At the same time neuronal populations undergo coordinated ON and OFF cortical state activity fluctuations, which are locally modulated by attention. The population coupling of soloists and choristers suggests that soloists should show limited alignment with cortical state fluctuations, while choristers should exhibit profound alignment. To test this, we recorded neurons across cortical layers in macaque areas V1 and V4 (n = 2 males), while animals performed a feature-based spatial attention task. As expected, we found a wide range of population coupling strength of neurons. In line with our prediction, coupling of choristers to cortical state changes (ON-OFF transitions) was generally stronger than that of soloists. The strength of population coupling of neurons was similar during spontaneous and stimulus-driven activity. Allocation of attention to the receptive field reduced the population coupling strength. Attentional modulation of neurons was positively correlated with population coupling strength. While neurons on average retained their coupling strengths across conditions, some neurons change coupling strength condition dependent, thereby potentially enhancing the coding abilities of cortical circuits.

Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 1 repository of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 10 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- 1 match between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
