Long‐range cortical dynamics: a perspective from the mouse sensorimotor whisker system

In the mammalian neocortex, the capacity to dynamically route and coordinate the exchange of information between areas is a critical feature of cognitive function, enabling processes such as higher‐level sensory processing and sensorimotor integration. Despite the importance attributed to long‐range connections between cortical areas, their exact operations and role in cortical function remain an open question. In recent years, progress has been made in understanding long‐range cortical circuits through work focused on the mouse sensorimotor whisker system. In this review, we examine recent studies dissecting long‐range circuits involved in whisker sensorimotor processing as an entry point for understanding the rules that govern long‐range cortical circuit function.
