Optical imaging of calcium signals in the brain has enabled researchers to observe activity hundreds-to-thousands individual neurons simultaneously. Current methods predominantly use morphological information, typically focusing on expected shapes cell bodies, better identify field-of-view. The explicit shape constraints limit applicability automated identification other important scales with more complex morphologies, e.g., dendritic or widefield imaging. Specifically, fluorescing components may be broken up, incompletely found, merged ways that do not accurately describe underlying neural activity. Here we present Graph Filtered Temporal Dictionary (GraFT), a new approach frames problem isolating independent as dictionary learning problem. focus time-traces-the main quantity used scientific discovery-and learn time trace spatial maps acting presence coefficients encoding which pixels time-traces are active in. Furthermore, novel graph filtering model redefines connectivity between terms their shared temporal activity, rather than proximity. This greatly eases ability our method handle data non-local structure. We demonstrate properties method, such robustness morphology, simultaneously detecting different neuronal types, and implicitly inferring number neurons, both synthetic real examples. applications at dendritic, somatic, scales.

The brain functions through coordinated activity among distributed regions. Wide-field calcium imaging, combined with improved genetically encoded indicators, allows sufficient signal-to-noise ratio and spatiotemporal resolution to afford a unique opportunity capture cortex-wide dynamics on moment-by-moment basis in behaving animals. Recent applications of this approach have been uncovering cortical at unprecedented scales during various cognitive processes, ranging from relatively simple sensorimotor integration more complex decision-making tasks. In review, we will highlight recent scientific advances enabled by wide-field imaging mice. We then summarize several technical considerations future opportunities for uncover large-scale circuit dynamics.

Abstract Understanding how cortical circuits generate complex behavior requires investigating the cell types that comprise them. Functional differences across pyramidal neuron (PyN) have been observed within areas, but it is not known whether these local extend throughout cortex, nor additional emerge when larger-scale dynamics are considered. We used genetic and retrograde labeling to target tract, intratelencephalic corticostriatal projection neurons measured their cortex-wide activity. Each PyN type drove unique neural dynamics, both at scales. Cortical activity optogenetic inactivation during an auditory decision task revealed distinct functional roles. All PyNs in parietal cortex were recruited perception of stimulus, but, surprisingly, tract had largest causal role. In frontal all required for accurate choices showed choice tuning. Our results reveal rich, cell-type-specific shape perceptual decisions.

Although resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have observed dynamically changing brain-wide networks of correlated activity, fMRI's dependence on hemodynamic signals makes results challenging to interpret. Meanwhile, emerging techniques for real-time recording large populations neurons revealed compelling fluctuations in neuronal activity across the brain that are obscured by traditional trial averaging. To reconcile these observations, we use wide-field optical mapping simultaneously record pan-cortical and awake, spontaneously behaving mice. Some components clearly represent sensory motor function. However, particularly during quiet rest, strongly fluctuating patterns diverse regions contribute greatly interregional correlations. Dynamic changes correlations coincide with arousal state. Simultaneously acquired hemodynamics depict similar brain-state-dependent correlation shifts. These support a neural basis dynamic fMRI, while highlighting importance study

A central tenet of neuroscience is that sensory, motor, and cognitive behaviors are generated by the communications interactions among neurons, distributed within across anatomically functionally distinct brain regions. Therefore, to decipher how plans, learns, executes requires characterizing neuronal activity at multiple spatial temporal scales.
